The default positions of the switch are as follows.
The light sensitivity can be electrically boosted using the
[GAIN] switch when there is insufficient illumination on the
object. (3 positions)
Memo :
The gain value of each position can be set to AAGCB and
within the range of A0dBB to A18dBB (in increments of 3
dB) using [Switch Set]B[GAIN L]/[GAIN M]/[GAIN H] in
