Note:

A total of 32 base address settings are available. The switches are a binary representation of the decimal memory addresses. Z10/1 is the Most Significant Bit and switch Z10/5 is the Least Significant Bit. The switches have the following decimal values: Z10/1=512, Z10/2=256, Z10/3=128, Z10/4=64, Z10/5=32. Turn off the switches and add the values of the switches to obtain the correct memory address. (On=1, Off=0)
