This user adjustable dip switch is provided to allow the user to tailor the operation
of the MacFi to meet their demands. 

NOTE:  This dip switch is read by the

system only upon power up. Changing the position of the dip switch
while the module is powered up will have no affect on the operation
of the system.

Standard Operation: 

A momentary contact closure causes the device to play

one sequence of the message corresponding to that input. A sequence is specified
by the number of message plays and the amount of delay between each message, as
selected by the dip switches. If a contact is maintained active, the system will
continuously play that sequence repeatedly until the input is released at which time
the system will finish the current playback sequence and then stop.
