      Indication on button 2 is 0 or 2, 0 when off, and 2 when lit

      Indication on button 3 is 0 or 4, 0 when off, and 4 when lit

      Indication on button 4 is 0 or 8, 0 when off, and 8 when lit

      Indication on button 8 is 0 or 128, 0 when off, and 128 when lit

      The base address will be the sum of the indicators lit up
