Chapter 2 Hardware Configuration 2-3. HOW TO SET THE JUMPERS You can configure your board by setting jumpers. Jumper is consists of two or three metal pins with a plastic base mounted on the card, and by using a small plastic "cap", Also known as the jumper cap (with a metal contact inside), you are able to connect the pins. So you can set-up your hardware configuration by "open" or "close" pins. The jumper can be combined into sets that called jumper blocks. When the jump
