Explanation of Jumpers

To modify the operation of the motherboard,

jumpers can be used to choose between

optional settings. Jumpers create shorts be-

tween two pins to change the function of the

connector. Pin 1 is identifi ed with a square

solder pad on the printed circuit board. See

the diagram at right for an example of jump-

ing pins 1 and 2. Refer to the motherboard

layout page for jumper locations.

Note: On two-pin jumpers, "Closed" means

the jumper is on and "Open" means the

jumper is off the pins.
