NDiS 127 User Manual

Chapter 2: Jumpers and Connectors

This chapter describes how to set the jumpers on the motherboard. Note
that the following procedures are generic for all NDiS 127 series.

Before You Begin

▪

Ensure you have a stable, clean working environment. Dust and dirt can
get into components and cause a malfunction. Use containers to keep
small components separated.

▪

Adequate lighting and proper tools can prevent you from accidentally
damaging the internal components. Most of the procedures that follow
require only a few simple tools, including the following:

-

A Philips screwdriver

-

A flat-tipped screwdriver

-

A set of jewelers Screwdrivers

-

A grounding strap

-

An anti-static pad

▪

Using your fingers can disconnect most of the connections. It is
recommended that you do not use needle-nosed pliers to disconnect
connections as these can damage the soft metal or plastic parts of the
connectors.

▪

Before working on internal components, make sure that the poweris off.
Ground yourself before touching any internal components, by touching
a metal object. Static electricity can damage many of the electronic
components. Humid environment tend to have less static electricity

▪

than dry environments. A grounding strap is warranted whenever
danger of static electricity exists.
