settings. 

 

2.2.1 Acquisition board jumper settings 

A jumper is a connector that, when placed over two jumper pins, provides continuity.  Jumpers 
are used to make each acquisition board specific to input from a particular set of 12 channels.  
Depending on whether it is a 12- or 24-channel SmartSeis

TM

 (S12 or S24), the jumper 

installation will vary.  Table 1 outlines the jumper settings specific to either case.  Spare boards 
are shipped configured as a channel 1 to 12 board unless otherwise specified.   

Prior to installation of a new board, verify that the settings for jumpers LK5 and LK9-LK23 on 
the new board match the board being removed and that they match the settings specified in 
Table 1.  Setting jumper pin pair LK5 activates the master oscillator and should only be set for 
the lowest number board.
