CHAPTER 2 JUMPER SETTINGS
2.1 JUMPERS PRESENTATION
Pins 2 and 3 are shorted with a jumper cap.
3 2 1
Pins 1 and 2 are shorted with a jumper cap.
3 2 1
The jumper is shorted when the jumper cap is placed
over the two pins of the jumper.
The jumper is open when the jumper cap is removed
from jumper.
Jumpers Convention
Different color of jumper caps (mini-jumpers) are used on the board to represent
different usage of the jumpers:
Red: CPU Clock setting
Black: Other

2.5 MEMORY CONFIGUARTION
The mainboard lets user upgrade system memory via DIMM sockets on the
mainboard. On board memory is located in eight banks: Bank 0 - 7. Four DIMM
sockets are provided for EDO DRAM or Synchronous DRAM. Table 3 provides
the typical memory configurations supported by the mainboard.
Bank 0/1 (DIMM1) Bank 2/3 (DIMM2) Bank 4/5 (DIMM3) Bank 6/7 (DIMM4)

CHAPTER 3 CONNECTOR
CONFIGURATION
Once the mainboard has been fastened into system case, the next step is to connect the
internal cables. The internal cables are wire leads with plastic female connectors that attach
to the connectors. The mainboard connectors have varying numbers of pins and are the
points of contact between the mainboard and other parts of the computer.

J1 is a front panel multi-function jumper includes speaker, reset, harddisk LED,
ATX power switch, Power On/Off, Power LED. The pin definition is as following
figure.
Fig. 4 Multiple Function Jumper
•RESET –RESET SWITCH CONNECTOR
Attach the Reset switch cable to this connector. The Reset switch restarts the
system.
•POWER –POWER ON/OFF SWITCH
It is used to switch on or off the ATX power supply. The power is turned on
by short the power switch once. It needs to hold the power switch about 4
seconds to turn it off when it has not start to display.
•IDE/SCSI HDD LED –IDE/SCSI HDD LED
CONNECTOR
It is usually connected to a HDD LED on front of the system case. If the IDE
or SCSI HDD is in operation, the indicator lights during operation.
