X7SLM-L User's Manual

2-7 Jumper Settings

Explanation of Jumpers

To modify the operation of the mother- board, jumpers can be used to choose between optional settings. Jumpers cre- ate shorts between two pins to change the function of the connector. Pin 1 is identifi ed with a square solder pad on the printed circuit board.

Note: On two pin jumpers, "Closed" means the jumper is on and "Open" means the jumper is off the pins.

LAN Port Enable/Disable

JPL1/JPL2 enable or disable LAN Port 1/LAN Port 2 on the mother- board. See the table on the right for jumper settings. The default setting is enabled.
