Chapter 5 5 Jumpers and Connectors This chapter gives information on setting jumpers and using the connectors on the PPC-L158T motherboard.
5.1 Jumpers and Connectors This chapter supplies more detailed information about the internal jumper settings and an outline of the I/O ports available on the PPC-L158T. 5.1.1 Setting Jumpers The Panel PC can be configured to match the needs of each application by setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electrical switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover), which slides over the pins to close the circuit and connect them.
The motherboard of the panel PC has a number of jumpers that help configure the system. It also has LED indicator lights that display the system operation status. The table below lists the function of each jumper and LED. The motherboard of the PPC-L158T has a number of jumpers that allow you to configure your system to suit your applications.
