CHAPTER 2: JUMPERS & CONNECTORS
When working with the
586MI, it is extremely
important that you avoid
static electricity. Always
ground yourself by wearing
a wrist or ankle strap.
Figures 1 on the next page shows the component layout of the 586MI system board with locations of the system board
jumpers and connectors. Note that most jumpers and connectors on the system board are labeled with proper names with
pin 1 marked as '1'. To avoid damaging the board and to have proper operation caution should be taken when connecting
these components.
SYSTEM BOARD JUMPERS
Jumpers are used to select between various operating modes. A jumper switch consists of two, three, or four gold pins
projecting from the system board. Placing the plastic jumper cap over two pins connects those pins and makes a
particular selection. Using the cap to cover two pins in this way is referred to as shorting those pins. If the cap is not
placed on any pins at all, this is referred to as leaving the pins open.
Note:
When you open a jumper, leave the plastic jumper cap attached to one of the pins so you don't lose it.
