TOWER SYSTEM
Configuring the Hardware
1. Assemble the Tower System and configure
the jumpers to the default settings as
shown in Step 2 of the Quick Start Guide
(QSG). Ensure that all of the boards are
pressed securely together.
Tip:
It is easier to set the default jumpers
before assembling the Tower System. You
can follow the jumper settings shown in
Step 2 of the QSG.
2. Ensure jumper J16 on TWR-SER has pins 3
and 4 connected as shown in Figure 2 of the
QSG. This selects the USB port to support
device class transmission which is required
for printing the EKG signal to the MED-EKG
GUI.
3. Set the default jumpers for MED-EKG as
shown in Step 2 of the QSG or Figure 1 in
this lab. Note the J2 setting: there are two
silk-screened labels indicating pin 1 around
J2. Set J2 as indicated in Figure 1 MED-
EKG module in this lab.
4. On the TWR-S08MM128 module, remove
the jumpers that connect pins 1 and 2, 9
and 10, 11 and 12, and 13 and 14 from
header J18.
5. Connect the MED-EKG board to the TWR-
S08MM128 board. Ensure that the pin
alignment is correct. See Figure 2.
