1.3 Einstellung der Jumper

Die Abbildung verdeutlicht, wie Jumper

gesetzt werden. Werden Pins durch

Jumperkappen verdeckt, ist der Jumper

“Gebrückt”. Werden keine Pins durch

Jumperkappen verdeckt, ist der Jumper

“Offen”. Die Abbildung zeigt einen 3-Pin

Jumper dessen Pin1 und Pin2 “Ge-

brückt” sind, bzw. es bendet sich eine

Jumper-Kappe auf diesen beiden Pins.

(CLRCMOS1, 3-Pin jumper)

(siehe S.2, No. 30)

Hinweis:

CLRCMOS1 ermöglicht Ihnen die Löschung der Daten im CMOS. Zum

Löschen und Zurücksetzen der Systemparameter auf die Standardeinrichtung

schalten Sie den Computer bitte aus und trennen das Netzkabel von der

Stromversorgung. Warten Sie 15 Sekunden, schließen Sie dann Pin2 und

Pin3 am CLRCMOS1 über einen Jumper fünf Sekunden lang kurz. Sie

sollten das CMOS allerdings nicht direkt nach der BIOS-Aktualisierung

löschen. Wenn Sie das CMOS nach Abschluss der BIOS-Aktualisierung

löschen müssen, fahren Sie zuerst das System hoch. Fahren Sie es dann

vor der CMOS-Löschung herunter. Bitte beachten Sie, dass Kennwort,

Datum, Uhrzeit, benutzerdeniertes Prol, 1394 GUID und MAC-Adresse

nur gelöscht werden, wenn die CMOS-Batterie entfernt wird.
