NGG jumper question

If you have an NGG, could you take a quick look in the backbox and let me know which jumper is used on the auxilary 8-driver board (W1, W2, or W3)?

Thanks.

I'm going through my final checks before releasing the P-ROC to production. As noted below, I added full support for the 8-driver boards for WPC/WPC-95 machines. John described the jumper configurations for all of the WPC machines (thanks again!).

Can somebody please verify the jumper configs on the driver-8 board in NGG? Specifically, I'm curious whether W1, W2, or W3 is stuffed.

Thanks.

Followup:

The P-ROC will support both 8-driver boards and alphanumeric displays from a WPC display-port equivalent connector. Software will have the ability to select between using the connector header with an 8-driver board or alphanumeric displays. I'm reusing the DMD control signals from the FPGA; so the DMD logic will be disabled when the alphanumeric logic is used.

The Enable bit going to the new connector for the 8-driver board will also be sent to the main control header (for the P/D board) so that when used in WPC-95 games with 8-driver boards (ie NGG), the P-ROC will be able to drive the additional drivers. This was missing from the early protos.

The 8-driver board used in the machines listed below has 5 jumper
positions to set up which enable display line to use to enable the
drivers. I want to wire the P-ROC to support the 'typical'
configuration (to avoid forcing the majority of users to change the
jumper). So my question is, which jumper is most commonly stuffed? Is
this a country config thing?

If you have one of these machines, would you mind taking a peak at your
8-driver board (upper right hand corner of the backbox - connected to
the CPU board display port) and telling me which jumper is stuffed?

Thanks.

Which machines use the display port on the WPC CPU board for extra
coil/lamp drivers? I'm considering adding support for the extra
driver bus on the P-ROC (www.pinballcontrollers.com), but I'm unsure
how many WPC machines make use of it.
Thanks.

8 Driver PCB Assy

A-16100
Games: IJ, Pinball Circus, ST:TNG, TZ
Jumpers installed: W4, SW2, SW4, SW6

A-16100-2
Games: DM, RS
Jumpers installed: W4, PW1, PW3, PW5

It appears W4 is always installed, and the other jumpers are changed
change the board from being switch columns to solenoids
