Gaplus Dip Switch Settings

Below are the specific dip-switch settings users have contributed for Gaplus:

            I don't remember if the switches are labelled 'A' and 'B' on the board
or not, but that's how they are referred to in the manual, and 'A' is the
one closer to the pinouts.

Round Advance note: By turning 'on' the option switch while 'parsec' is being
  indicated on the screen, you can advance through the 'rounds'.  Push the one
  player control lever forward (player number one _up_ switch is 'on') to
  indicate the number.  The indicated round number will appear on the monitor
  screen when the option switch is turned 'off'.
