11.4.3 Setting Jumpers

This section describes how to set the following jumpers:

11.4.3.1 Setting Serial Port Jumpers

There are two serial port jumpers on the system board. See Figure 11-48. The jumpers are factory-set in RS423 mode. The ports can be re-set as RS232 mode (for connection to a X.25 network in Europe or Australia).

Note - The serial port jumper is the only jumper block you need to set for the S10BSX service code model.

To move the jumper settings from RS423 mode to RS232 mode:

    Set the two serial port jumpers using needlenose pliers.

    See Figure 11-48.

    Figure 11-48 Setting the Serial Port Jumpers

11.4.3.2 Setting Clock Speed Jumpers - S10 Service Code

Note - There are no clock speed jumper on the S10BSX service code. The S10BSX service code model system clock speed runs only at 80 MHz. No action is necessary for the S10BSX service code.

This section describes the jumper settings for two different types of system boards - a system board with three jumper blocks to set the clock speed and a system board with one jumper block to set the clock speed. You must set the system clock speed jumpers on the S10 service code system board to ensure correct operation of the MBus module. Use Table 11-3 and Table 11-4 to determine the correct jumper settings for your system. Use Table 11-3 if you know your system model number; or use Table 11-4 to find the jumper settings based on your MBus module numbers.
