Steve,

Here is some AST information:
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
Info-FAX  (714) 727-4773  (last time I called - may have changed?)
 
You call the number with a touch-tone phone (do they make rotary phones
anymore?) and can select the document(s) you want.  An index is available
(about 8 pages long). 
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
Tech support (714) 727-9360 (automated attendant) takes a long time to
listen and select the options. 
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
BBS (714) 727-4723  (2400 baud)
 
If the SixPakPlus is being installed in an XT, you'll need ASTCLOCK.ZIP
available via the BBS.
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
Here is some more specific information for you:
 
From the location of the battery, my guess is that you have a Type 1.
 
The switch settings:
 
Mem K     start address  | installed on 6-pak         Mem K
          1    2    3    |    4    5    6    7    8
                         |
 64       0    0    0    |    0    0    0   n/a   p      0
128       0    0    1    |    0    0    1   n/a   a     64
192       0    1    0    |    0    1    0   n/a   r    128
256       0    1    1    |    0    1    1   n/a   i    192
320       1    0    0    |    1    0    0   n/a   t    256
384       1    0    1    |    1    0    1   n/a   y    320
448       1    1    0    |    1    1    0   n/a        384
512       1    1    1    |
 
1 = on 
0 = off
 
parity recommended to be on at all times
 
switch 7 is not applicable
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
Jumper settings:
 
port enable  (left to right)
 
     1    2    3    4    5    6
 
     x enable serial port as com1: (3F8)
          x enable serial port as com2: (2F8)
               x enable parallel port as lpt1:
                    x enable parallel port as lpt2:
                         x enable game port (201)
                              x enable clock/calendar (2C0)
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
IRQ enable jumper block
 
3S IRQ 3 install if COM1: enabled
43 IRQ 3 install if COM2: enabled
 
4  must 
5       leave 
7              these
2                     open
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
IRQ 7
 
install jumper if parallel port is LPT1
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
The top three jumpers are for RS-232 settings.  Normal is to have the left
two pins shorted on all three of these. 
 
If you need to have CTS, DSR, or DCD be forced true, then you can short
them. 
 
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 
 
The top connectors are for the game and parallel ports.
 
 
Well, that's pretty much all I know.  If you need more information, I
would recommend you contact AST. 
 
Good luck,
 
Andy
