2.5 Jumper Setting
This section provides the card default configuration and the options for setting each
jumper.
2.5.1 How to set jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting the jump-
ers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal pins and a
small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to con-
nect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper
you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3. In
this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3. You may find a pair of
needle-nose pliers for setting the 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.
