Where was the other page?

from the specs it states that there are four  hardware default 
configurations set by two pins but it is not very clear as to which 
pins are used to set the four different configurations.

Soldering components on a 2x3 board is not a problem. A small 4 in 
square hot plate and it is done. Takes about 2 minutes per board.
