Both TEMPO tapping and SYNC IN pulses go through the same divider/
multiplier that will set the speed at which the sequencer is clocked.
Because analog clocks are relative, and each device can use a different
standard of PPQN (pulses per quarter note), the speed is not necessarily
related to a 4/4 bar.
All clock sources go through a  divider/multiplier that sets how many
impulses it takes for the sequencer to progress one step. The CLOCK
OUT gives out a pulse each time the sequencer would be advanced.

The divider on GATE 5 is the default for both clocking options. Use it
when unsure.
When changing the TEMPO divider, the sequencer will re-synchronize
to a step it would be at if the sequencer was running at that divider the
whole time since it was started. This means you can change the tempo
divider performatively and be able to go back to your main divider of
choice.
