Warning:
Incorrect jumper configurations may damage the CPU, the mainboard
and other sensitive electronic components. It is advisable to consult
product literature before configuring the jumpers on the PV 2208
mainboard.
The PV 2208 mainboard has four jumpers (JP1, JP2, JP3 & JP4) that enable the user
to set-up the mainboard for optimal performance based on their computing needs. A
jumper is the simplest type of electrical switch. It consists of two metal pins and a
metal clip, which is covered by a plastic cover. You may set up you mainboard to
match the needs of your applications by setting the jumpers. To
open
a jumper, you
remove the clip. To
close
a jumper, you connect the pins by using the clip.
The jumper settings are presented above.

mainboard. Then remove the jumper from pins 2 & 3 and place the jumper on
pins 1 & 2 (3V battery back up). Reattach the power cord and restart the
computer.
