The jumpers J16-18 and J20 in the board are populated differently depending on which version of the board was ordered.

Make sure to use jumper shunts to completely populate J4 and J8. J10 must be populated for there to be communication with the EZFET. Use the following figure to populate the following jumpers for all variants:

Leave connected for dual H-Bridge mode.

Note: Jumpers J16-J20 placement varries depending on the different EVM variants.

For more detailed information download the hardware files and schematics. Once you have verified that all shunts and jumpers are in the correct location you can move on to hardware setup.
