The power switch is already part of the existing switch array. Look at 
the lower left corner of the P3.

P3 can also be powered from the K3 or from an alternate DC source if you 
wish. (wall wart, Astron ps etc..) It can be internally jumpered to 
either follow the external 12V on/off from the K3 accessory power jack 
or to use its own power switch button.
