Jumper Settings Explained¶
Jumpers manage electrical connections on a mainboard. A jumper is set to “ON” when a plastic cap bridges two pins, creating a closed circuit. It is set to “OFF” when the cap is removed, opening the circuit. Some jumpers include three pins (1, 2, and 3), allowing configurations between pins 1-2 or 2-3. The illustration below demonstrates various jumper settings:
All jumpers are preset to their default configurations, marked with an asterisk (*) in this guide, either as ON (with cap) or OFF (without cap).
Detailed Jumper Settings¶
JSB1: CMOS Data Reset¶
To maintain or clear the motherboard’s CMOS settings:
Power off the system and disconnect all power sources.
Disconnect the 12V DC power cable.
Set JSB1 jumper between pins 1 and 2 to clear CMOS.
Reset JSB1 to its default setting (typically pin 1-2 closed).
Reconnect the 12V DC power cable.
This procedure is typically used for troubleshooting or if the BIOS password is forgotten.
