ARK-2250 User Manual 82.1 IntroductionThe following sections show the internal jumpers settings and the external connectorpin assignments for application.2.2 Jumpers 2.2.1 Jumper DescriptionYou may configure ARK-2250 to match the needs of your application by setting jump-ers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric circuit. It consists of twometal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides overthe pins to connect them. To close a jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. Toopen a jumper, you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins,labeled 1, 2 and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows.A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you haveany doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact yourlocal distributor or sales representative before you make any changes. Generally, yousimply need a standard cable to make most connections. closed 2-3closedopen12 12closed 2-3closedopen
