2.2.1 Jumpers
This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the motherboard. A
metal-bridge jumper used to close an electric circuit, and it usually consists of two metal
pins and one small clip protected by a plastic cover that slides over the pins to connect
them. Users can connect the pins with the clip to close a jumper, and remove the clip to
open a jumper. Generally, a jumper will have three pins which labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this
case, you would connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.
The jumper setting diagram is shown below. When the jumper cap is placed on both pins,
the jumper is SHORT. The illustration below shows a 3-pin jumper; pins 1 and 2 are short. If
you remove the jumper cap, the jumper is OPEN.
PIN 1-2 SHORT
NOTE:
A pair of needle nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you
have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application,
contact your local distributor or sales representative before you make any
changes. Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most
connections.
