[GreenKeys] Dovetron coding question

Hi All,
At the risk of showing my  lack of basic knowledge in computer stuff, I have 
run into a question with my Dovetron with speed conversion.
The speed conversion rate rate  is programmed via a mini 8 dip switch 
package in BCD. The manual says the left four positions (1-4)  are MSD the 
right four LSD. (5-8). The maual also shows the correct number for me to 
have a 50 baud printer to be input is 75

I make that to be 01001011

But elsewhere in the manual it  gives the switch positions for the  number 
75 as 11101010. This programming is in fact the correct program number.  Why 
is it not the 01001011  ?

What am I missing here?

Thanks,
Keith ve3ts
