Epson Rx-80 Tyrs Serial Board

Hello, I have a Epson RX-80 F/T+ with a TRYRS serial board, there are two dip switches on with 6 positions and the other with 8 positions. I have the RX-80 users manual, but does not indicate how to set these DIP switches. Also no luck searching for info on the net. Does anyone have any lititure on the board set up? Thanks in advance, Don
