There are no DIP switches on the Equity Ill +. However, there is a MONITOR SELECT switch, a CPU SPEED switch and a VOLUME CONTROL on the front of the unit in the lower left hand corner.

Monitor Select

Color, composite, EGA, and VGA monitors
The CPU SPEED switch selects between 6 MHz, 8 MHz, and
12 MHz. When the computer is running at 6 MHz the power light is red, at 8 MHz, the light is orange, and at 12 MHz, the light is green.

Keylock

The keylock on the front panel allows you to disable the keyboard and RESET button and lock the top cover of the main unit for security. The keyboard may be locked while the system is in operation. This disables the keyboard SO no one can interfere with the current operation.
To lock the system, insert the key with the notch pointing left and turn it clockwise. You must press it in slightly when you turn the key. To unlock it, insert the key with the notch
pointing up and turn the key counterclockwise. You can remove the key in either position.
