manufacturers that send Clock Bus are also likely to be compatible, such as the Malekko Varigate 8+.
On the back of the MiniPEG is a jumper to enable sending or receiving clocks over the Clock Bus.
When this jumper is installed in the RECV position, clock pulses on the Clock Bus will be sent to the
Ping jack as if they were patched directly into the jack. When a cable is plugged into the Ping jack, the
Clock Bus signal will be ignored.
When this jumper is installed in the SEND position, the ping clock (before division or multiplication) will
be sent over the Clock Bus. In other words, if you tap a tempo on the Ping button or if you patch an
external clock into the Ping jack, this tempo will be sent 1:1 to the Clock Bus. Changing the Div/Mult
amount will not change the signal on the Clock Bus. When using the Mini PEG to send a clock, you
must ensure there are no other modules configured to send a clock over the same Clock Bus. Having
two modules send clocks on the same Clock Bus will result in unpredictable behavior, possibly causing
erratic tempos and/or making all Clock Bus modules fail to work properly.
To disable use of the Clock Bus, remove the jumper entirely. It's safe to "park" the jumper by installing it
on only one pin.

Updating Firmware
The Mini PEG has a boot loader that allows for updating the firmware by playing a special audio file
into the module. When a firmware update is available, it will be posted on 4mscompany.com as a WAV
file (or zipped WAV file).
Updating Firmware
1. Download the audio firmware file and prepare to play it on your computer or mobile device.
2. Set your computer or device volume to maximum, both in the system/OS controls and also in the
audio player application.
3. Power off the Mini PEG and unpatch all cables.
4. Patch the computer/device output to the Shape CV jack (any mono or stereo cable will work).
• Note: If you have a 4ms Listen IO or other module that boosts line level to Eurorack level, run
the audio through it before patching into the Shape CV jack.
5. Hold down Ping and Cycle while you power on the Mini PEG.
6. The module will boot into bootloader mode, with the Ping light blinking green, and the ENV OUT
and 5V ENV lights purple.
• If you wish to exit bootloader mode, press the Ping button while it's flashing green.
7. Begin playing the audio firmware file. You can monitor the signal by listening to the EOF jack.
• The Ping and Cycle buttons will alternate blue and white to indicate the signal is being received
8. If the update fails, the buttons will flash red. Press Ping to try again.
• If it fails more than once, you may need to adjust the threshold. See below.
9. When the update succeeds, the lights will flash rainbow colors. Press Ping to start running the new
firmware.
Adjusting the Threshold
The Mini PEG can compensate for a variety of signal levels by adjusting the threshold. This technique
is only recommended if you don't have access to a line-to-Eurorack level conversion module such as
the Listen IO.
