Special Considerations
Setting Priority Mode (J1)
For normal operation, set JP1 to the upper position (High Mode) to ensure the high priority cells
are always sent before low priority cells. Be aware that if most of the traffic is high priority, the
low priority cells may never get delivered because there will always be high priority cells to
process. In this situation, set JP1 to the lower position (High/Low Mode) to ensure that cells in
both queues are processed alternately.
Setting LED Display (J2)
JP2 enables or disables the flashing TX/RX LEDs when cells are transmitted or received.
For normal operation, set JP2 to the upper position (pins 1-2 jumpered) to enable LEDs to flash
only when the XM module is in service.
