Sustain value asymptotically. A control voltage of down to -5 V leads to a
Sustain value of -10 V. The LED's (11), (17) and (20) are monitoring the related
phases by rising and falling brightness. For positive envelope output voltages
they light up "green" and "red" for negative ones. Fig. 6 shows the mentioned
relationships.

8.4 Reset function
Jack 12 provides the Reset input of the envelope generator. This jack is tied
via an internal switching contact to jack 8 (Env-Gate), the envelope's start
input. That means with a start gate signal at jack 8 the envelope output will be
set to 0 V and return to the Attack phase, immediately, independently of any
states. Fig. 7 shows the effects of a reset, independently of jack 8 (Env-Gate).
The duration of the reset pulse is no matter, because the reset is done within
about 3 µs, so, the reset pulse shouldn't be shorter. With a plug at jack 12,
even open ended, the internal connection to jack 8 will be untied. The
envelope curve runs up and down, continuously without any jumps.
