My Eldo has just the opposite shift pattern using the heel-toe shifter. To
upshift, press the toe end down; to downshift, press the heel down.
Does this mean I've got some non-standard parts on the bike?

The standard shift pattern since the mid 70's has been 1 down and the
rest up. When you have a heel-toe shifter, this means that you press the
toe end down to down-shift and press the heel end down to up-shift. It
does take some getting used to.
