If you want to run the second A-155 independently from the A-154 it needs a
separate control unit that generates the address signals. This is the job of
the small control board of the A-155. But you need a 4-fold switch as 4
signals (clock, A0, A1, A2) have to be switched between the internal control
board of the A-155 and the corresponding signals coming from the A-154. A
bit of electronical experience is required to realize that modification as
12 signals have to be wired to the right terminals of the 4-fold switch:
Clock to A-155 potentiometer/trigger boards (center terminal #1 of the
switch)
Address signal A0 to A-155 potentiometer/trigger boards (center terminal #2
of the switch)
Address signal A1 to A-155 potentiometer/trigger boards (center terminal #3
of the switch)
Address signal A2 to A-155 potentiometer/trigger boards (center terminal #4
of the switch)
Clock from A-154 (left terminal #1 of the switch)
Address signal A0 from A-154 (left terminal #2 of the switch)
Address signal A1 from A-154 (left terminal #3 of the switch)
Address signal A2 from A-154 (left terminal #4 of the switch)
Clock from A-155 control board (right terminal #1 of the switch)
Address signal A0 from A-155 control board (right terminal #2 of the switch)
Address signal A1 from A-155 control board (right terminal #3 of the switch)
Address signal A2 from A-155 control board (right terminal #4 of the switch)
All signals are available at the ribbon cables.
