Warranty
Applying any negative voltage (< 0V) or positive voltage above +5V (> +5V) to one of the 16
analog inputs (JP1, JP2) will destroy the circuit !
If potentiometers and/or switches are connected between GND and +5V of PE as
described in this manual no problems will occur.
When external control voltages are connected to PE the user has to pay attention that the
voltages applied are strictly within GND and +5V referenced to GND of PE !
Do not solder directly to any of the pin headers but use female connectors to make the
connections between PE and the potentiometers, switches or voltages. A cable set that contains all required connectors and cables is included with PE.
Carry out all connections in the off-state of PE (i.e. when powered-off only) !
Do not power on PE (i.e. do not connect the power supply to the corresponding jack socket)
before all 16 analog inputs are connected. Do not leave analog inputs unconnected !
The 4-pin connector is allowed to connect a button and LED only as described in the
manual. Do not connect any other electronic parts or voltages.
PE electronics is an electrostatic sensitive device. Avoid any electrostatic charges ! Do not
touch the analog inputs with your fingers !
Avoid short circuits !
Ignoring any of these items will cause warranty loss !
Return of the PE within the 2 weeks return time limit (valid only in Germany) is only possible
if all these items have been met. Return of used cable sets is not possible. We also cannot take back modules that have been soldered by the user.

Introduction
PE is an universal electronics DIY kit to built your own Midi control box. Up to 16 controls
can be connected to PE transmitting 16 different Midi messages on different (or even the same) Midi channels. The most important messages are probably the Midi Control Change messages – often simply called "Midi controllers". In the following we are sometimes talking about Midi controllers though other Midi messages are possible. The available Midi messages are described in the manual of the editor software.
Typical examples for controls that can be used are rotary potentiometers, fader/slider
potentiometers, momentary switches, toggle switches, foot switches or foot controllers). The controls are not included but have to be added by the customer.
Even voltages sources can be used instead of the controls provided that the voltages
applied are strictly within the range 0...+5V (referenced to PE GND)! Voltages beyond this range will destroy the electronics !
The PE configuration (i.e. the assignment of Midi messages and channels to the controls in
the 128 presets) is made with a editor program (PC version, free download from our web site www.doepfer.com ). It enables the user to program his own 128 presets. Sorry we do not offer a Mac version of the editor program. But we have available the OEM version of Emagic's Sounddiver (both PC and Mac version, extra charge).
The factory presets are described in the appendix of this manual These can be changed with
the editor program.
The 16 controls resp. control voltages are connected to double row pinheaders (10 pins
each). To these headers two 10 pin ribbon cables are put up. The terminals of the controls are soldered to the free ends of the ribbon cables. In this way the controls might be disconnected from the electronics very easily.
PE is equipped with Midi In and Midi Out. The incoming Midi messages are merged to the
data generated by PE provided that the Midi data does not exceed a certain amount. In this way several PE can be linked together to obtain larger controller arrays with more than 16 controls.
PE is available only as an assembled and tested pc board (about 80 x 56 x 25 mm).
PE includes two 10 pin ribbon cables (about 30 cm each), button and LED (snapshot
function) and the power supply.
An external power supply (7-12VDC@min. 100mA) is required for the PE. It is included for
all shipments within Germany (230V version with European mains plug). For shipments outside Germany please ask your local representative or dealer.
We do not offer a suitable housing as this would have to be completely different for various
combinations of controls.

Connection and Installation
Please pay attention to the following notes !
Electronic basic knowledge is required to install the PE electronics and to connect the controls resp. control voltages. If you are not sure whether your knowledge is sufficient please consult an expert. We cannot take back modules that became defective because of wrong installation or wrong connection of the controls or voltages. We also cannot take back modules or cables which have been soldered by the user.
Power Supply (1)
PE does not have a built-in power supply. Instead it uses a plug-in type external power supply (AC adapter). One reason for this feature is electrical safety. Keeping danger voltages (main) out of the PE increases the electrical safety. Therefore an external power supply of high quality and safety should be used. If PE is used in Germany the external power supply has to be VDE approved. Another reason for the external power supply is the fact that mains voltages and plug types vary considerably from country to country. Using a plug-in external supply PE can be used any where with a locally purchased power supply, thus keeping the retail price down.
The power supply has to be able to deliver 7-12 VDC unstabilized voltage, as well as a minimum current of 100mA. PE is switched ON by plugging the AC adapter into a wall outlet and connecting it to the appropriate jack on the PE board. There is no separate ON/OFF switch. After power on the preset adressed by the settings of the DIP switch is called up, as well as the current settings for Midi thru mode and master channel. For details please refer to the user's manual of the free editor software.
If the polarity of the power supply is incorrect, PE will not function. However, there is no danger of damage to the circuitry since it is protected by a diode. The correct polarity is: outside ring = GND, inside lead = +7...12V. A power supply for 230V mains voltage with European type mains plug is included with the PE (valid only within Europe, for other countries ask you local Doepfer representative or dealer).
Midi Out Socket (2)
Connect the Midi Out socket with Midi In of the device to be controlled by PE (e.g. Computer, Synthesizer, second daisy-chained PE) via a suitable Midi cable. If you want to control more than one Midi device you have to use daisy chain Midi Thru / Midi In connection of the devices ore use a external Midi Thru box.

Midi In Socket (3)
The PE features a Midi input. This input may be connected to another Midi device (e.g. Midi keyboard). The incoming Midi data are merged to the data generated by PE. The Midi input may be used as well for daisy-chaining several PE. The Midi input of PE is not suitable for large amounts of Midi data (e.g. SysEx strings or Midi messages coming from an computer sequencer) as the PE has only a small Midi in buffer. In case of large amounts of incoming Midi data loss or delay of data may occur.
The Midi input is also required when PE is programmed with the editor software. In this case the Midi input of PE has to be connected to the Midi output of the computer on which the editor program is running. The Midi output of PE has to be connected to the Midi input of the computer. Details can be found in the manual of the editor program.
If the merge feature of the PE is not required and the programming option is not used the Midi input is left open.
Connectors for the 16 controls (4)
The two pin headers JP1 and JP2 are used to connect the controls. Both pin headers have available these signals: GND, +5V and 8 control voltage inputs (range 0...+5V).
Remark: In the following the terms GND (= abbreviation of ground) and 0V (zero volts) are used synonymous.
The control voltages are normally generated by rotary or fader potentiometers that are connected between GND and +5V. In this case the wiper of the potentiometers outputs a voltage in the range 0...+5V while the potentiometer is operated. Another possibility is the connection of momentary switches or toggle switches.
The lower part of the sketch on the next page shows the pinout of the two pin headers JP1 and JP2 (same orientation as the picture on page 5). The pins labelled 1 ... 16 are the 16 control voltage inputs.
Normally two 10 pin female connectors with ribbon cables are plugged to the pin headers JP1 and JP2. The female connectors with ribbon cables are included with the PE. The controls (e.g. potentiometers, switches) are soldered to the open ends of the ribbon cable.
The upper part of the sketch shows the pinout of the 10 wires of the ribbon cables. We strictly recommend this type of wiring but not to solder the wires directly to the pin headers JP1 and JP2. Usage of the ribbon cables with female connectors allows to disconnect the controls from the electronics very easily.

Linear potentiometers with resistance values 4k7 ... 100k can be used. We recommend 10k (linear).
Momentary or toggle switches can be used in two different ways:
state of rest aktive state
Midi data voltage Midi data voltage version 1 0 0V 127 +5V version 2 127 +5V 0 0V
Simple momentary switches (1 contact, open at rest) or simple toggle switches (1 contact on/off) are required. According to the desired behaviour (version 1 or 2 in the above table) the switch has to be wired correspondingly:
Connection of a momentary or
toggle switch (version 1)
Connection of a momentary or
toggle switch (version 2)
In both cases an additional 10k resistor is required (possible range 4k7 to 100k) to pull the analog input to a defined state during the switch is open.
Version 1: The resistor is soldered between GND and the control voltage input 1...16. This
way the input is pulled to GND ( =0V corresponding to Midi data 0) as long as the switch is left open. When the switch is closed the voltage jumps to +5V corresponding to Midi data
127.
Version 2: The resistor is soldered between +5V and the control voltage input 1...16. This
way the input is pulled to +5V (corresponding to Midi data 127) as long as the switch is left open. When the switch is closed the voltage jumps to 0V corresponding to Midi data 0.
Sixteen 10k-resistors (range 4k7 ... 100k) are enclosed witch each PE delivery. Suitable resistors are available in each electronic shop too (value: 10k, power: ¼ W, tolerance: 5%, material: carbon).
Unused inputs have to be connected to GND. Avoid open inputs ! An open input will cause the transmission of random Midi data causing undesirable side effects at the Midi receiver (e.g. Midi overflow or random parameter fluctuations).
User's Guide Pocket Electronic Page 9
Connector for snapshot button and LED (5)
PE has two simple controls available: a so-called snapshot button and a LED. If the user wants to have available these controls they are connected to the pin header ST1 in this way:
The button is a simple momentary switch (open at rest) and any standard LED can be used (3 or 5 mm or rectangle, red/yellow/green/blue/white color). Pay attention to the polarity of the LED. Normally the cathode (minus terminal) is indicated by a shortened pin and is the bigger electrode inside the LED.
A 4 pin female connector can be used for wiring. This allows to disconnect the button and LED from the electronics very easily.
The LED is essentially used as a control display, the button is used to send off all 16 Midi messages with the data corresponding to the present positions of the 16 controls (snapshot function). The functions of the snapshot button and the LED are described in detail in the operation chapter of this manual.
DIP Switches (6)
The positions of the 8 switches of S2 determine the number of the preset that is called up during power on. For details please refer to chapter "controls and operation".
Page 10 Pocket Electronic User's Guide
Mounting
Before PE is put into operation the board has to be fixed on a suitable support and built into a metal case together with the controls (refer to EMC notes on page 2). The metal case has to be connected to GND of PE. We recommend to use the metal plate of the voltage regulator 7805/IC6 or the GND terminal of the power supply socket for this connection.
The board measures about 80 x 56 x 25 mm. Five mounting holes with 3 mm diameter are available for mounting the board inside the case e.g. with distance sleeves or spacers (> 5 mm in length) and suitable screws. Pay attention that no short circuits are made – neither on the top of the board (electronic parts) nor on the bottom (solder points or pcb tracks). In case of doubt use isolating plastic parts (e.g. plastic screws, nuts and washers) for mounting.

User's Guide Pocket Electronic Page 11
Controls and Operation
Apart from the 16 potentiometers and/or switches that are connected to JP1 and JP2 PE has these controls available:
momentary switch/button (connected to ST1, please refer to page 10)
LED (connected to ST1, please refer to page 10)
8 pin DIP switch (please refer to page 10)
Functions of the LED
After power on the LED will stay lit for around one second when the power is first applied to the PE . If this does not happen probably the power supply used is not suitable (i.e. correct polarity, voltage and current) or defective.
Under normal operation the LED indicates MIDI input activity, and also MIDI output activity when moving the potentiometers or operating the switches connected to PE .
The LED also indicates these situations:
The status of the Snapshot function (details see "functions of the button")
Data and status when setting the Master channel
Indication that a preset has been changed
Any error at the MIDI input
Whenever an overflow at the Midi input is recognized by PE the LED turns permanently on.
This is an indication that the merge capacity of PE has been exceeded, or that SysEx messages intended for PE have been transmitted too fast. In both cases the Midi data have been probably received or transmitted incomplete. If applicable the data rate at the Midi input of PE has to be reduced as PE is not able to process high Midi date rates (e.g. a complex Midi sequence sent by a sequencer). To clear the error the button has to be operated (details see "functions of the button")
Functions of the button (momentary switch)
The button has various functions:
to send a "snapshot"
The snapshot function is not achieved by just pressing the snapshot switch, as this could be accidentally pressed too easily. So to activate the snapshot function, first briefly press the switch once, this causes the LED to flash, the switch needs to be pressed again within at least one second (whilst the LED is still flashing). This then invokes the snapshot function, and the data from all 16 inputs is transmitted from the PE.
to set the master Midi channel
Page 12 Pocket Electronic User's Guide
The Midi master channel is used to select which channel the PE will transmit on when using relevant presets (i.e. presets using the master channel). Some presets (such as the MIDI volume - preset 0) has each input on a different channel, whilst other presets have all inputs on the same channel, it is on these presets that the Master channel is used. The master channel is also the channel which the PE will receive program change data on. To set the master channel, hold the snapshot switch down for at least one second and keep it held down, the LED then stays on to indicate the master channel setting mode (do not let go of the button until the required value has been selected). In this mode the inputs become channel selectors, and do not transmit the normal control data. To select a channel, simply move one of the potentiometers or operate one of the switches connected to JP1 or JP2 that relates to the channel required (to set channel 5, move potentiometer/switch in input #5). If you accidentally operate the wrong potentiometer or switch, just operate the correct one, as it is the last potentiometer/switch operated that determines the actual Master channel set.
to reset the PE after a Midi overflow at the Midi input
To clear any Midi input error such as a Midi overflow (too much data in one go), press the snapshot switch briefly once (do not press it again until at least one second has passed, or this would enter the snapshot mode).
Functions of the DIP switch
The eight DIP switches select the number of the preset that is called up after power on. The settings of the DIP switch can be looked upon as a binary number where each switch can be either on or off. This allows up to 256 values to be selected from the eight DIP switches.
A switch is referred to 1 when it is in the ON position, and referred to 0 in the
position. The
OFF
on or off (or both) position is printed or labelled on the DIP switch. Only seven of the switches are actually used to select one of the 128 available presets. The eighth switch is not used at present and has no functions, but it is good practice to leave it in the OFF position, as a future update may make use of this switch position.
The switches are numbered one to eight. The upper switch (near the capacitor C3 or restistor R8) is switch number one, the lower switch (near IC2/25LC64) is switch number eight.
The following listing, lists all the available presets that are shipped in the PE (i.e. the factory presets). These presets may be modified with the free editor software mentioned earlier. The presets are described in detail in the appendix.
Up to 128 different presets are available. If none of the factory presets can be used the editor program enables the user to program his own presets.

The eighth switch is not used at present and has no functions.
Presets 75 to 127 are left blank for your own custom requirements.
The adjustment of the preset with the DIP switch is normally carried out only once or onöy very rarely. The idea is to have the favourite preset available after power on.
Changing the preset during power on
There are two possibilities to change the preset during power on:
changing the settings of the DIP switch (as described above)
sending a Midi program change message on the current Midi master channel to the Midi
input of PE
In both cases the preset change is indicated by turning on the LED for about one second. During this short time no Midi merge or data transmission is possible.
If a Midi program change message is used to change the preset number this change is only temporary. After power off/on the preset defined by the DIP switch settings is called up again.

Check list
In case that your PE installation does not work at the first go please check the following points:
Is the power supply working correctly ? Provided that a LED is connected to ST1 (pay
attention to the polarity) it should light up for a short time and then go out.
Are the controls connected as described in this manual ?
Was no short circuit made (neither in the wiring nor mounting) ?
When the diode D1 and the voltage regulator IC6 become hot probably a short circuit
between GND and +5V was made !
When momentary or toggle switches are used: Are the 10k (4k7...100k) resistors soldered
accordingly?
Are unused inputs connected to GND ? When the LED is flickering permanently without
operating one of the controls probably one of the 16 analog inputs is left open !
Is the LED flickering if incoming Midi messages appear at the Midi In of PE (e.g. from a
keyboard)?
Are the Midi connections between PE and the other Midi devices installed correctly ? Midi
Out of PE has to be connected to Midi In of the Midi device controlled by PE. Especially when computers are used Midi In and Out are very often mixed up by the user. Once again: Midi Out → Midi In (not Midi Out → Midi Out nor Midi In → Midi In).
Please use only cables that are suitable for Midi.
When a PC with sound card is used only high quality multimedia cables should be used. Low
cost multimedia cables without optocouplers for Midi In and without drivers for Midi Out very often cause Midi data problems.
Is the right preset number selected with the DIP switch ? A good preset number for testing is
no 0: if all 8 switches are "off" one obtains volume on the Midi channels 1...16 (provided that the factory presets are unchanged, otherwise the Midi messages you have programmed to preset no 1 will appear).

Appendix 1: Detailed description of the factory presets
Presets 1 ~ 4 use a single controller type, with each knob relating to it’s corresponding MIDI channel, this allows full control of 16 parts within a multitimbral sound generator, or realtime mixing in sequencer automation:
Preset 1 Volume Controller 7 Channels 1- 16 Preset 2 Panorama Controller 10 Channels 1- 16 Preset 3 Cutoff Channel Controller 74 Channels 1- 16 Preset 4 Resonance Controller 71 Channels 1- 16
Presets 5 ~ 8 use two controllers, one across the top row of knobs and the other across the bottom row. With Preset 4, the top row is MIDI controller 7 (Volume) with the MIDI channel corresponding to the knob number, whilst the lower row is MIDI controller 10 (Pan) on the same channel as the knob above it, hence knob 9 is channel 1, knob 10 is channel 2 etc. Preset 5 follows the same idea except the MIDI channel is channels 9 to 16, so the actual MIDI channel relates to the lower knob numbers. Preset 6, again follows the same idea as Preset 4 except the top row is MIDI controller 74 (Filter Cut off ) and the lower row is controller 71 (Filter Resonance), and finally Preset 7 is the same as Preset 6 except the channels are 9-16.
Preset 5 Volume/Pan Controller 7/10 Channels 1- 8 Preset 6 Volume/Pan Controller 7/10 Channels 9- 16 Preset 7 Cutoff /Resonance Controller 74/71 Channels 1- 8 Preset 8 Cutoff/Resonance Controller 74/71 Channels 9- 16
Presets 9 ~ 16 are general controller sets, which transmit on the Master Channel. Where the receiving MIDI device can be programmed to any controller it can receive, these presets maybe the only presets needed, although preset 8 is perhaps best avoided for general use as it includes controller 0 (could trigger MIDI program bank changes) and controller 1 which is the mod wheel, although of course there may be instances when MIDI controller 1 is required, such as adding a modulation wheel function to a keyboard (such as a digital piano). Preset 12 also needs to be used with caution, as controller 64 is defined as the sustain/damper pedal function, and most devices will always receive this controller as Damper or Hold.
Preset 9 general controllers Controllers 0 - 15 Masterchannel Preset 10 general controllers Controllers 16 - 31 Masterchannel Preset 11 general controllers Controllers 32 - 47 Masterchannel Preset 12 general controllers Controllers 48 - 63 Masterchannel Preset 13 general controllers Controllers 64 - 79 Masterchannel Preset 14 general controllers Controllers 80 - 95 Masterchannel Preset 15 general controllers Controllers 96 - 111 Masterchannel Preset 16 general controllers Controllers 112 - 127 Masterchannel
Preset 17 has the top row of knobs transmitting relevant NRPN controller data for GS/XG instruments, and the lower row is general controllers:

Appendix 2: Creating your own presets
New presets can be created or present ones can be altered, though it is recommended to dump all new presets into free locations 77 ~ 127. Every input of the PE can be assigned with three 7-bit parameters (between 0 and 127), these parameters define the Midi event transmitted by the inputs. Each preset can be dumped into the PE by a System Exclusive message. This is a two stage process, first the data is sent to the PE (Single Dump) and then a second message stores the data into non­volatile memory (Single Store). The data is only stored if the preset number is the same in both the Single Dump and Single Store messages are the same.
Parameter 1:
This first parameter defines the Midi channel that the event will be transmitted on (values 1 ~ 16), or if the event will use the Master Channel (value set to 0).
Parameter 2:
The second parameter describes the type of event. The PE does not allow you to program any MIDI string, but uses one of it’s 128 preset events (which is the number set with parameter 2). This list of events include controllers, pitch bend, mono & poly aftertouch, note on, note off, RPN’s and many NRPN’s along with some more complex Sys-Ex strings for controlling Roland GS and Yamaha XG instruments.
Parameter 3:
The third parameter is an extension of parameter 2, many events need two values to determine the event, for example, if a value of 00 is set in parameter 2 (which is controller) then parameter 3 sets the controller number (perhaps a value of 7 to define Volume events).
The Sys-Ex message can be generated within a sequencer program (it is best to use Hex if possible), or the free editor program that is available for download from our website. The default file contains the following message (Hex):
F0 00 20 20 14 00 20 00 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F 0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 07 F7
F0 00 20 20 14 00 30 00 00 F7
The first message is the Single Dump and the second message is the Single Store. Please note, that this default is about to overwrite preset number 00, shown in bold above as the eighth data byte. It is an idea to experiment with preset 127 (set the data to Hex 7F), but don’t forget to change the value in both strings. The function of this default dump is to set the knobs to Midi volume on their own channels - this is actually the preset data in preset 01 anyway.
The Sys-Ex data can be broken down into sections, the first part is the Sys-Ex format for the Doepfer Pocket Series (Pocket Control/Fader/Dial/Electronic) Single Dump, which is (numbers in Hex):
F0 00 20 20 14 00 20 preset channel (16 bytes) data (32 bytes) F7
F0 Sys-Ex byte 00 European Sub ID 20 Doepfer Sub ID 1 20 Doepfer Sub ID 2 14 Device “Pocket Series" 00 reserved 20 Command Byte “Single Dump” 00 ~ 7F Preset Number 00 reserved
User's Guide Pocket Electronic Page 29
00 ~ 10 Parameter 1. There are 16 data bytes setting the MIDI channel of each knob, a setting of
0 sets the knob to the Master Channel.
00 ~ 7F Parameter 2. There are 16 data bytes setting the event type for each knob, a setting of
7F defines “No Event” to the knob
00 ~ 7F Parameter 3. There are 16 data bytes setting the additioanl event data for each knob. The
definition of parameter 3 depends on what parameter 2 is set to.
F7 EOX (End of System Exclusive)
The data that must follow is the Single Store message which is:
F0 00 20 20 14 00 30 F7:
F0 Sys-Ex byte 00 European Sub ID 20 Doepfer Sub ID 1 20 Doepfer Sub ID 2 14 Device “Pocket Series" 00 reserved 30 Command Byte “Single Store” 00 ~ 7F Preset Number (Must be the same as in the first message above) 00 reserved F7 EOX (End of System Exclusive)
