Before Installation
Now that you have determined where the jumpers need to be, you must determine
how to jumper your particular backplane. VXIbus chassis provide jumper
connections in one of three ways; stake pins, DIP switches, or auto jumpering. If the
chassis in use auto-jumpers the daisy-chain signals, proceed to the next chapter.

Different backplane manufacturers handle jumpers and DIP switches in different
ways; some provide stake pins on the rear of the backplane while others provide stake
pins or DIP switches on the front of the backplane. These stake pins can be located
in several different places.
If the stake pins are on the rear of the backplane, the most common place is in the
middle of the J1 connector as shown in Figure 5 below. This can be just these pins
extended or all pins extended for wirewrapping.
