Configuration Jumper

The board features two jumper pad:

InterfaceDescription
LED-JUMPERThe PPS (Pulse Per Second) LED jumper. To save power, you can physically cut the trace between the pads of this jumper. You can later re-solder the jumper to reconnect the PPS LED.
ENS160-ADDRThe ENS160 I2C address jumper. The ENS160 can be configured to use either the default I2C address (0x53: connect the JUMPER:H) or an alternative address (0x52: connect the JUMPER:L).
