Note: A total of 8191 base address settings are available. The switches are a binary representation of the decimal memory addresses. SW1/1 is the Most Significant Bit and switch SW2/5 is the Least Significant Bit. The switches have the following decimal values: SW1/1=32768, SW1/2=16384, SW1/3=8192, SW1/4=4096, SW1/5=2048, SW1/6=1024, SW1/7=512, SW1/8=256, SW2/1=128, SW2/2=64, SW2/3=32, SW2/4=16, SW2/5=8. Turn off the switches and add the values of the switches that are off to obtain the correct memory address. (Off=1, On=0)
