----- +UART mode is where the code it uploaded to the chip and GPIO0 must be low on boot to enter this mode . \\ 
-Olimex jumpers are set a little differently as the table is their Jumper position. +
-Below are the notes from Olimex boards and the different modes the ESP8266 ​chip operates in . Usually its default mode is FLASH and holding pin GPIO15 (MTDO)low ensures you get this boot mode.+
  
-OLIMEX© 2014 +FLASH mode is when running ​the programTake GPIO0 high after UART boot or it will stall on first reset. \\  
-MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV reference +
-ESP8266 has three modes of operation: SDIO mode, UART mode and FLASH +
-mode. By default ​the board is configured for FLASH mode operationThe +
-jumpers for the default FLASH mode were set during production as follows: +
-TD0JP(MTD0) is set to position 0;\\ IO0JP(GPIO0) is set to position 1;\\ +
-IO2JP(GPIO2) is set to position 1.\\ +
-To access the other modes you would need to manipulate the on-board SMT +
-jumpers called TD0JP(MTDO),​ IO0JP(GPIO0),​ and IO2JP(GPIO2). They are +
-located at the top of the board near the UEXT pads. Each of the jumpers +
-can be set to either position 0 or position 1. The jumpers are +
-highlighted on the picture below:+
  
-The positions for the all the modes are printed on the board itselfThe +SDIO mode is where the chip boots from an SD cardI dont think this is available yet. \\      ​

-^  MODE/​Jumper ​    ​^TD0JP(MTDO) ^IO0JP(GPIO0) ^IO2JP(GPIO2)| +For the two modes we care about, the processor expects GPIO15 to low and GPIO2 to be high on boot. GPIO0 selects between ​the two modes we are going to discuss hereDuring normal operation, we would want to use a resistor ​to pull GPIO0 high.5 That will cause the bootloader inside ​the ESP8266 ​to read data from the EEPROM chip into the ESP8266’s IRAM and boot our program. If we set GPIO0 low, however, ​the boot ROM inside ​the ESP8266 takes over and it begins communicating over the UARTUsing this boot ROM we can push our programs ​to the flash memoryA good way to make use of this is to connect ​a switch ​from GPIO0 to ground so you can put it into program mode at will by holding ​the button at power on
-^SDIO            | 1            | x              | x       | +
-^UART            | 0            | 0              | 1       | +
-^FLASH (DEFAULT) | 0            | 1              | 1       | +

-For example: +
-Initiallyyou can't update ​the firmware of MOD-WIFI-ESP8266-DEV since by +
-the board starts in the default FLASH modeIn order to update the +
-firmware of the board you would need to change the starting mode to UART. +
-This is done by changing ​the position of the jumper named IO0JP(GPIO0) ​to +
-0. After the update is done – change ​the position of IO0JP(GPIO0) back to +
-1 again. +
-In order to change ​the position of an SMT jumper like that you would need +
-basic soldering skills. There are two things that you would need to do: +
-1. Remove ​the original connection between the pads. If it was made using +
-soldering – unsolder it and remove ​the soldering residueIf it was a +
-hardware PCB connection – make sure to cut between ​the pads with a sharp +
-tool (like a safety cutter). +
-2. Connect the pads of the desired position by soldering. Do not use +
-large amount ​of soldering residue. Do not keep the soldering iron pressed +
-to the board longer than 10 seconds. Make sure that there is no left-over +
-soldering residue which might lead to accidental short-circuits. +
-If you want, you can add wires and PTH jumper or a slide switch to the +
-pads of the jumpers. This would allow easier change of the jumpers in +
-future. +
-More details about the three different modes might be found in the +
-ESP8266 datasheet.+
