I need some clarification for the installation of a "shorting jumper" for part P7 on the control board. the instructions are on page 17, right-hand column, 3rd step down.
Do I solder a piece of wire btwn the two right hand pins of P7, and if so, exactly where? During my attempt at installation, I damaged part P7, also damaged part P5 with my soldering iron so I will have to order two new parts Monday. I am concerned as to the state of the PCB board now because much of the plating at P7 and P5 was removed/damaged. wonder how this will pan out during testing. any suggestions are welcome.

There is a small, rectangular, black plastic jumper with 2 holes in it. You
slide that over the indicated pins of P7. It is the easiest of the jumpers to place. Look for that little, black mystery part. There is a pic of it in appendix A - page 4, next to the last item.

Dennis,
That jumper is one just like those used on computer headers. One was included in your kit. A picture of it can be found on page 4 of Appendix A in the manual. Just push it onto the header pins. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > I need some clarification for the installation of a "shorting > jumper" for part P7 on the control board. the instructions are on > page 17, right-hand column, 3rd step down. > -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
