Jumper Key
J11 If using 3kW or higher wattage heater, jumper can be set in either position, but may perform better on Pins 1 and 2.
If using 2.5kW or lower wattage heater, jumper must be set on 1 Pin only.
J12 Factory set. DO NOT MOVE.
Jumper must be on Pins 1 and 2 for GS51xZ/GS52xZ/GS5xxSZ/GS5xxDZ software.
Jumper must be on Pins 2 and 3 for GS50xZ software.
J43 When jumper is placed on 2 pins during power-up, system will reset persistent memory.
Leave on 1 pin only to enable persistent memory feature.
WARNING:
Setting DIP switches incorrectly may cause abnormal system behavior and/or damage to system components.
Refer to Switchbank illustration on Wiring Configuration page for correct settings for this system.
