Only 3 modules are affected: A-110, A-111-1 and A-140 and as far as I know
everything is descibed in the corresponding user manuals:

A-110: CV1 is normalled to the bus (provided that the jumper next to the bus
connector is installed). As soon as a plug is inserted into the CV1 socket
the internal connection to the bus is interrupted.
A-111-1: If the jumper J1 is installed the bus CV is added (i.e. the socket
CV1 is not normalled but the CV signals of CV1, CV2 and the CV bus are
added)
A-140: gate is normalled to the bus (provided that the corresponding jumper
is installed). As soon as a plug is inserted into the gate socket the
internal connection to the bus is interrupted.

Best wishes
