There are five LED lights to the right of the touch screen. All five LEDs illuminate white when the device starts up and then cycle as the system software loads. The cycling indicates that the device is working. When a USB is inserted into the MinION Mk1C, all LEDs illuminate and flash three times before the normal cyclical pattern resumes.

The lid can be flipped open to access the flow cell housing.
Clip
The clip holds the flow cell or Configuration Test Cell securely in place.
Configuration Test Cell (CTC)
