Altair 8K BASIC configuration

I have the manual somewhere that explains this.
I add a patch that makes the console output appear on the VDM-1.
Other choices are teletype, etc.

Unfortunately, I have temporarily misplaced this all.
I have no idea when I will find it.
If anyone else can help, please do so.

Subject: Altair 8K BASIC configuration

While trying to get the 8K BASIC to work with the Altair emulator, I've
figured-out that there must be some way for the user to define, using the
sense switches, which I/O ports could be used for the console.

Does anyone have the manual for 8K BASIC or handwritten notes on the topic?
I need to find the definition of the switches at startup because I'm losing
console input on the emulator when using 8K BASIC.

Thanks.
