Pull switches may be either two-position (open or closed) or multi-position (allowing for different fan speeds or levels of illumination). Mounted inside a pull switch, there could be two types of two-position toggle switches. (In both cases the stable physical open- or closed -situation would be switch in outer and string in upper position.)

Eight switches offer 256 (2 8) combinations, which is equivalent to one byte. A tri-state type DIP switch can be in one of three positions (+, 0, −) which allows more codes than a binary DIP switch. For example, 8 pole tri-state DIP switches offer 6,561 (3 8) combinations/codes compared to 8 pole binary switches' 256 (2 8) combinations/codes ...
