The board inside the Consolette is the Audio Interface Board. The optional TRC board also has two additional DIP switch packages and two jumpers.

Looking at the manual, the DIP switches set impedance, enable/disable options such as battery revert, control head power button, local desk mic, tone table selections, impedance, 2/4 wire, etc.

dip switches...
