Are you ready to optimize the jumper settings on your Tegui and Bticino monitors? Follow this ultimate guide to get the most out of your devices!
What are Jumpers and why are they important?
Jumpers are small devices used to configure different functions on Tegui and Bticino monitors. They are essential for customizing and adjusting your devices' operation according to your specific needs.
How to configure Jumper N?
The Jumper N is used to configure the monitor's power supply. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions to select the correct option and ensure a stable and safe power supply.
How to configure Jumper P?
The Jumper P adjusts the polarity of the video signal. It is crucial to set it correctly to ensure a clear and sharp image on your monitor's screen. Follow the manual's instructions for optimal configuration.
How to configure Jumper M?
The Jumper M is used to select the monitor's operating mode, such as video mode or audio mode. Make sure to choose the appropriate option according to your specific preferences and needs.
Step 1: Identify your model
These are some of the models where N, P, and M jumpers are used:
- Classe 100X16E WiFi
- Classe 100V16B / Classe 100X
- Swing Monitors (black and white or color)
- Series 8
📃 Step 2: Locate the jumpers on the monitor
They are on the back of the monitor, identified with the letters N, P, and M. Each has two positions to insert jumpers.
⚖️ Step 3: Check previous configuration (if replacing a monitor)
Before removing the old monitor, note or take a photo of the exact position of each jumper.
🔢 Step 4: Set the new jumpers the same as the previous ones
Use the following table as a reference for common configurations:
📊 Table of typical N, P, and M jumper configurations
| Functionality / Location | Jumper N | Jumper P | Jumper M |
|---|---|---|---|
| Housing 1A | N=1 | P=1 | M=0 |
| Housing 1B | N=2 | P=1 | M=0 |
| Professional Study (auto-opening) | N=5 | P=2 | M=20 |
| Swing without screen | N=3 | P=1 | M=0 |
| Swing with screen | N=4 | P=2 | M=10 |
| Classe 100X16E replacing Swing | Same as above | Same | Same |
✨ Tip: restart the monitor after placing the jumpers so it applies the new configuration.
🔹 Real cases of configuration on Tegui monitors
🏠 Case 1: Upgrade from Swing to Classe 100X16E WiFi
Situation: Home with Swing with screen, replaced by Classe 100X16E.
Solution:
- Keep N, P, and M at the same values
- Verify compatibility with 2-wire system
- Restart the monitor after changes
💻 Case 2: Activate “Professional Studio” (auto-open)
User: Installs 100X16E WiFi monitor and wants auto-open.
Configuration:
- M1: jumper with value 2
- M2: jumper with value 0
Result: The auto-open function activates when a call is detected.
💡 Common mistakes when configuring jumpers N P M (and how to avoid them)
❌ Not matching the configuration after replacing the monitor
Solution: Review and replicate the old configuration (photo or notes).
❌ Configuring two monitors with the same jumper N
Solution: Each N must be unique per home or call point.
❌ Do not restart the monitor
Solution: Disconnect and reconnect the power supply after modifying jumpers.
🚀 Additional technical tips
- Always use good quality jumpers that are properly inserted
- Check that the values do not shift when closing the monitor casing
- If you use “Professional Studio” mode, make sure the power supply and outdoor panel support that function
🤝 Frequently asked questions about configuring jumpers N, P, and M
❓ Can I switch from a Swing monitor to a Classe 100X16E without changing the configuration?
Yes, as long as you keep the same values for N, P, and M and the system is 2-wire.
❓ Where can I get jumpers if I am missing them?
You can purchase them in our store: 👉 tegui-distel.com
❓ Does changing the configuration directly activate the auto-open function?
Not always. You must manually activate the function from the monitor menu if it is supported (e.g., Classe 100X16E).
📋 Conclusion
Correctly setting the jumpers N, P, and M is essential for the proper operation of your Tegui or Bticino video intercom system. Whether to maintain functionality when changing monitors or to activate advanced features like “Professional Studio” mode, this guide provides the basics to do it safely and effectively.
