Advantech Valor Startup Manual

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

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

jumper.

1.8.1 How to Set Jumpers

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 CMOS Clear (JCMOS1)

The AIMB-587 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 CMOS1 to 2-3 closed for just a few seconds, and then

move the jumper back to 1-2 closed. This procedure will reset the CMOS to its default

setting.
