The On position is marked as shown in figure. The Off position
is usually the opposite of the On position. Use a screwdriver with a small head, or a pair of tweezers to move the
switch into the On or Off position.
DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
JUMPER HEADER SETTINGS AND CABLE CONNECTIONS
- Programming Interface Board has 3-Pin Jumper Header 1110 for supplying +3V, +5V or no power to the target module in Special Software Upgrade Process.
- For IPOD Software Upgrade to MPEG Board and CEC Software upgrade to HDMI Board, +5 V pin and the middle pin of the jumper header 1100 must be shorted by a jumper as shown.
Note: Active Subwoofer Power Box will use its own power supply
while upgrading power box software. So the jumper header 1100 should be left
open without any jumper.
