2.3 Jumper Settings

This section tells how to set the jumpers to configure your card. It gives
the card default configuration and your options for each jumper.

2.3.1 How to Set Jumpers

You configure your card to match the needs of your application by setting
jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. 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" a jumper you connect
the pins with the clip. To "open" a jumper you remove the clip.
Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case
you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3.
You may find a pair of needle-nose pliers useful for setting the jumpers.
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your
application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before
you make any changes.
