How to use jumperless 2 / 3？

  Hey Sun,

  When the Jumperless is unplugged, the resistance of the connections should go up to infinity and the Jumperless should basically act like a regular, non-jumperless breadboard. When you plug it in, it won't make any connections until it gets a command from the computer. So if you already have the bridge app running, it'll take about a quarter of a second to get the first command and start up. The connections are cleared anytime the Jumperless loses power or receives a new set of connections. So I don't think you'll have a problem.

  Here's a general Getting Started guide

  <h1>Cool, so you have this super sexy object now. How do turn it into an actual prototyping tool? The answer is software.</h1> <p>After you've unboxed (<a href="https://hackaday.io/project/191238/instructions">and maybe assembled</a>) your Jumperless, we're going to need a way to talk to it. </p> <p>Now, the Jumperless is very open and will accept netlists from any program with some basic formatting, if you hate Wokwi and want to use something else, <a href="https://hackaday.io/project/191238-jumperless/log/222353-the-code">this project log</a> should give you an idea of what format it accepts over serial so you can write your own Bridge to any software you like. But for now, I'm focusing on Wokwi because I think it's better to have solid support for one workflow than shitty support for a bunch.</p> <h2>First, we need to <a href="https://github.com/Architeuthis-Flux/Jumperless/releases">download the App and latest firmware here</a>.</h2> <h1>Updating The Firmware</h1> <p>I ship these with the latest firmware installed, so if you just received your Jumperless in the mail, you <em>can</em> skip the firmware update. But I usually push minor fixes to that firmware.uf2 file every few days, so it's probably worth doing anyway.</p> <h2></h2> <p>On your Jumperless, there will be a little button on the opposite side of the USB port. This is the USB Boot button and works exactly the same

  
  

  And it would be a good idea to update the firmware, there are some new fixes out.

  Release v1.1.1.1 · Architeuthis-Flux/Jumperless

  https://github.com/Architeuthis-Flux/Jumperless/releases/tag/v1.1.1.1

  Here are the full instructions for getting started with your new Jumperless Fixed a routing bug where dense boards weren't getting their hops properly connected. Also added a packaged windows app (...

  If you want to send me the circuit you're thinking may have an issue, I can double check it to make sure there's nothing that will be affected by making all the connections at once.

  
  

  Thanks,

  Jumperless 2/3 looks like a cool way to connect parts without tiny jumpers. It makes things easier and faster for building electronics. I’d love to see how it works in real projects!
