* NC may *not* mean "No Care" for this pinout. I can't figure out what it
does exactly, but it does have traces in the schematic similar to the other
buttons, controls, and switches. Elsewhere on the schematic (pin F) there
is a "N.C." which is, I'm sure, a "No Care" pin.
I have a clone board which has 2 boards connected by 2 IDC cables.
My board has two sets of DIP switches, an 8 way at 11E on the
video/sound board, and 4 way on the CPU board.

off MAINTENANCE USE ONLY
* indicates default setting
'Switch 8 is for maintenance use only and should normally be in OFF
position. This halts the microprocessor. If it is inadvertently
placed in the ON position, a multicoloured pattern appears on the
screen on power up.'
I've no idea what switch 7 does.
The manual also advises:
'Toggle switches are also found at position 4A on the CPU board. These
are for maintenance only and should not be touched.'
Looking at the circuit diagram, we see that:
Switch1: No connection
Switch2: on: pin 21 of ROMS tied to A12 line.
Off: pin 21 of ROMS isolated
Switch3: on: 'A' input of '139 ROM decoder tied to A12 line.
Off: 'A' input of '139 ROM decoder tied high.
: on: pin 21 of ROMS tied to +5V
Off: pin 21 isolated
My guess is that they select 2716 or 2732 ROMS.
2716: switch 3,4 on, switch 2 off
2732: switch 3,4 off, switch 2 on
I have 2716's on my board, and mine are set as shown.
