PGM Jumper (J3)

Some RIO device models include a jumper which will reset the device settings at power-up.

Near the center of the RIO device, you may find a two-pin jumper labeled J3. At power-up, the RIO device checks to see if these pins are shorted with a shunt. If shunted, the RIO device will reset the following EEPROM contents to the factory defaults:

  • Serial port
    9600-N81
  • Serial timeouts
    2000ms, 5ms
  • Response delay
    0ms
  • Address
    247
  • Debounce
    75ms
  • LEDs
    enabled
  • CTS
    enabled
  • Coil outputs
    off
  • Counters
    0

Be sure to remove the jumper after power-up so that future changes to the EEPROM will not be lost if the RIO device ever loses power.

Note:

The PGM Jumper is tested only at power-up. Connecting a shunt to the jumper during operation will have no effect until the RIO device is powered off and back on.
