Note: We received an email in January, 2011 that stated the following:  

"I can tell you after much trial and error that the settings on this page are completely reversed.<br>
The settings for DIP board 1A  are actually for 2A and vice-versa.<br>
Also, within those DIP boards, the switches, even though they're labeled on the PCB as 8-1 running LEFT (8) to right (1),<br>
are wrong on this cheat sheet as well.<br>Basically, reverse the order of the switches on both boards and change 1A to 2A and 2A to 1A."
