2.4Jumper settings

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.

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you have any doubts about the best hardware configu- ration for your application, contact your local distributor or sales representatives before you make any changes.
