I don't see any rotary switch, but sure enough it's mentioned several places in M100SIG.

cd M100SIG ;find ./ -type f |xargs grep -n PCSG |less

Oh, also a whole review:
https://archive.org/download/M100SIG/M100SIG.zip/LIB-13-REVIEWS%2F6ROMBA.LU

From all that, especially the review, it sounds like the ROMBank is a fairly simple hardware switch. Maybe there was nothing too much in the manual that you can't tell just from looking at the device in your hands. "Don't switch roms while powered-on" seems to be the only real non-obvious info.

Not like PGDesigns SAFE that needs a BASIC program to operate, and a watch battery to remember it's current selection through power-off.

I haven't waded through everything that find|xargs grep turned up, but I couldn't miss this one...

LIB-13-REVIEWS/SAFE.REV
"Those of you who've been put off by the heavy, kludgy, cold-start special called "ROMBank" from PCSG"

Sorry ;)
At least if it happens to you, now you'll know it's not you or your M100.

Here's one pick from ebay. Will take more after I have it in my hands. Figuring on adding it to one of my SR M100s.

        All:

        Just grabbed a PCSG ROM Module w/ Disk+ ROM from eBay. Docs &
        software for Disk+ included, but not for the ROM Module. Not
        that I can see. Checked Club100, Archive.org, & pdfdrive.com
        <http://pdfdrive.com>, but no luck finging anything. Anyone have
        something in the way of docs for the PCSG ROM Module?

        Looks like ROM switching is done via a rotary switch. Not much
        else can figure out from the photos. Any hints/sources appreciated.

        Sicerely,

        GregS <><
