There are DIP switches on the board that can select a NIB image. It is
possible to make a switch external, but may not look good.

Any key combination must be programmed on Apple: the interface board doesn't
see the Apple keyboard.

Wow, that sounds like a IIgs enhancment to add rom code to make a menu option for swapping disks. ;)

Thankx,
