Overview

CPU Motherboard Jumper Settings

NIC Card Address Setting

The NIC card, along with each media card, all have jumpers that must be set as shown below.

NIC-compatible jumper settings on CPU motherboards depend on which motherboard is used.

Motherboard 566-227 (normally used in 4100U-S1):

P10: Port 1 settings.

P11: Port 2 settings.

P10/P11 position 1 – 2: Network card (NIC) attached to CPU motherboard (default).

P10/P11 position 2 – 3: RS-232/2120 card attached to CPU motherboard.

Motherboard 565-274:

JW1 and JW2 must be installed.

Jumper plugs P5-P8 must not be installed.

Use SW2 to set the NIC card address. Refer to Appendix A for the address table.
