CONFIGURATION JUMPER DETAILS
This section explains the use of several jumper options on the Altair Baseboard.
The board contains jumper blocks for configuring the following features. The board also contains locations for
installation of 0-ohm resistors in place of all valid jumper positions for a rugged configuration. The 0-ohm resistors
are oriented and labeled in a way that provides easy understanding of their use and easy interpretation of their
settings.
