1. Introduction

Module A-161 is an eight-step Clock Sequencer
which is internally connected to the Clock Divider
(A-160)
. Eight outputs are sequentially switched by
the clock signals from the A-160 (see Fig. 1) and can
act, for instance, as sequential rhythmic triggers for an
envelope. The reset on the A-160 also works on the
A-161 (instant return to Step 1).

Installation in the rack system:

The A-161 must be positioned directly to the
right of the A-160.

Join the two modules with the supplied 10-way ribbon
cable. Use the upper 10-way socket on each module.

Make sure that the ribbon cable isn’t twisted, and that
the colour-coded section is oriented the same on both
modules.

Only join the A-160 to the system bus! Leave the
lower 10-way socket on the A-161 unused.
