I've always played them as taking an action to activate. It's possible I've been doing this as a house rule, and that a canon answer would be different.

I can't speak for bts but in rifts we always played it that if you started using your psionics/magic from the beginning you activated it before the fight started thus not needing an action to activate. However if you suddenly decided to stop using your gun/fist/weapon/whatever and switch, well thats a different story.
Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear. -Thomas Jefferson
