Note:

A total of 256 base address settings are available. The jumpers are a binary representation of the decimal memory addresses. JP7/A is the Most Significant Bit and switch JP7/H is the Least Significant Bit. The switches have the following decimal values: JP7/A=2048, JP7/B=1024, JP7/C=512, JP7/D=256, JP7/E=128, JP7/F=64, JP7/G=32, JP7/H=16. Turn off the switches and add the values of the switches to obtain the correct memory address. (Open=1, Closed=0)
