What is the function of jumper pins?

Jumper pins are small connectors on a computer motherboard or other electronic devices that allow users to enable or disable specific features or settings. By placing a jumper cap over two or more pins, users can configure hardware options such as resetting BiOS settings, setting device modes, or enabling components. They are typically used in conjunction with the device's manual to ensure proper configuration. Jumper pins provide a simple and effective way to modify hardware settings without requiring complex software changes.
