TRIGGERS 
A 
trigger/gate 
sends 
a 
signal 
which 
turns 
ON 
or 
OFF 
the 
Contour 
Generators 
of 
an 
instrument. 
Moog 
has 
customarily 
used 
S-triggers 
(switch 
triggers). 
When 
an 
S-trigger 
occurs, 
the 
voltage 
(around 
12 
volts) 
goes 
from 
+12 
to 
ground. 
Acting 
as 
a 
switch 
in 
the 
circuit, 
this 
causes 
the 
Contour 
Generators 
to 
turn 
on. 
Taurus 
II 
also 
has 
a 
V-trigger 
otherwise 
known 
as 
a 
gate. 
A 
V-trigger 
occurs 
when 
the 
voltage 
(at 
0 
volts) 
goes 
from 
0 
to 
+10 
volts. 
Taurus 
(I 
will 
accept 
input 
voltages 
from 
+3v 
to 
+10 
volts 
as 
V-triggers. 
The 
TRIG 
IN/OUT 
connector 
is 
a 
stereo 
jack 
and 
acts 
as 
either 
an 
input 
or 
output.

Department 
at
