Model 700 Programmer – Operations Manual 

 

 

The Model 700 has an isolated ground in its power cord, so Pin 1 should be used as the 
ground reference for control voltages. For actual definitions of the signals, refer to the 
Model 700 operations manual. These signals are redundant with the normal back panel 
jacks, and have identical operation. 
 
 
The new Model 700 will also have individual scaling trimmers for the three output 
VOLTAGES, with access holes in the panel. This will allow, in most cases, the ability to 
do all interface trimming in the 700, without having to adjust the synthesizer. When 
shipped, they will be trimmed to exactly 1V/OCT 
 
 
The deliveries of the new Model 700 will start in early 1979.
