I have two Franklin Ace 1000 Plus machines, which have a
single 5-1/4" floppy drive in a housing above the CPU.
The 1200 apparently is an 1000 Plus with two drives.
The power switch is on the back, right next to the power plug.
According to the photo at the bottom of this page:

the power switch for the 1200 is also on the back.
