1-3. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Follow the messages below to avoid your systems from damage:
1. Avoid your system from static electricity on all occasions.
2. Stay safe from the electric shock. Don’t touch any components of this
card when the card is on. Always disconnect power when the system
is not in use.
3. Disconnect power when you change any hardware devices. For
instance, when you connect a jumper or install any cards, a surge of
power may damage the electronic components or the whole system.

S MANUAL
2-3 HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS
You can configure your board by setting jumpers. A jumper consists of
two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and a
small plastic “cap” (with a metal contact inside) to connect the pins. So
you can set up your hardware configuration by “open” or “close” the
pins.
The jumper can be combined into sets, which is called jumper blocks.
When the jumpers are all in the block, you have to put them together to
set up the hardware configuration. The figure below shows how this
looks.
JUMPERS AND CAPS
If a jumper has three pins, for example labelled PIN1, PIN2, and PIN3.
You can connect PIN1 & PIN2 to create one setting and shorting. You
can either connect PIN2 & PIN3 to create another setting. The same
jumper diagrams are applied all through this manual. The figure below
shows what the manual diagram looks like and what they represent.
