2.1 Jumper and installation
2.1.1 Jumper Description
Board can be configured via jumper setting. The jumper is a metal bridge used to
form a closed electric circuit. It consists of two metal pins and a jumper cap (inside is metal
clip, outside is plastic cover for protection purpose). Putting on the jumper cap to form a
closed electric circuit, while removing the jumper cap to disconnect the circuit. Sometimes a
jumper will have three pins, labeled as pin1, pin2 and pin3. In this case the user can
connect either pins 1 and pin2, or pin2 and pin3.
