Jumper Settings

This section provides instructions on how to configure your motherboard by setting

the jumpers. It also includes the motherboards's default settings and your options for

each jumper.

1.8.1

You can configure your motherboard to match the needs of your application by set-

ting the jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge that closes an electrical circuit. It consists

of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides

over the pins to connect them. To "close" (or turn ON) a jumper, you connect the pins

with the clip. To "open" (or turn OFF) a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a

jumper consists of a set of three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case you connect

either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3. A pair of needle-nose pliers may be useful when set-

ting jumpers.

1.8.2

The AIMB-223 motherboard contains a jumper that can erase CMOS data and reset

the system BIOS information. Normally this jumper should be set with pins 1-2

closed. If you want to reset the CMOS data, set J1 to 2-3 closed for just a few sec-

onds, and then move the jumper back to 1-2 closed. This procedure will reset the

CMOS to its default setting.
