    The DIP switches for this tablet are located on the back of the unit enclosed in the metal controller panel.  There are
    three banks of eight switches labelled 1, 2, and 3.

  Switches 6,7 and 8 in Set C determine the size of the tablet
  being used.  To set the switches correctly refer to the following:

  Tablet Size  C-6   C-7   C-8
  18 X 24      ON    ON    OFF
  24 X 36      OFF   ON    OFF
  36 X 48      ON    OFF   OFF
  44 X 60      OFF   OFF   OFF

    2.  The outside frame that houses the DIP switches has a "1" marked on the top side of the DIP switches and a "0"
         on the lower side.

        To change a switch setting to ON, depress the side of the switch toward the number "1".

        To change a switch setting to OFF, depress the side of the switch toward the number "0".
 
        (Use a small screwdriver to depress the switch.   Do not use a lead pencil or other instrument that may damage
        or mark the switch).


THE DEFAULT SWITCH SETTINGS IN THE USERS MANUAL (ABOVE) ARE FOR TABLETS WITH RED SWICHES. THE DEFAULT SWITCH SETTINGS FOR THE BLUE SWITCHES ON SOME TABLETS ARE JUST THE OPPOSITE.
