        Help please with the switch settings for a Memory expansion  card 
        probably designed for a 286 AT architecture system
        
        The  card is full length AT, with 16bit connector. It contains  5 
        banks of DIL chip sockets, to take either 64kbit or 256kbit chips 
        in  rows  of 9 (parity), two rows forming a  bank.  Max  capacity 
        2.5MByte 
        
        There  does  not appear to be any LSI chips to indicate expanded 
        memory support. I assume it just  provides extended memory.
        
        There are two switch blocks on the board.. SW1 6way and SW2 8way. 
        The  switches are metallic faced with  "ON MG Japan" on the  top. 
        One of the boards has "Zero Taiwan" stamped on it with an FCC  ID 
        of FIF48G PE505 which I am told belongs to :-
        Personal Computer Communications
        17932 Shypark Blvd
        Irvine Ca   92714
        
        Any information on these boards would be gratefully received. 
        
        An email reply would be super.
        
        Thanks
        
        Chris
