Re: JAG LED's

The polarity switch switches the INPUTS only. Use in the down position for 0 - 10 volt 
joysticks and envelope generators.

Use in the up position for dual LFOs that produce +/- 5 volt waveforms.

The outputs are always 0 - 10 volts (approx.)

on, and when you go to one of the corners (i.e. 2,4,6,8 positions), that diode only lights 
up.  However, when I change to the +/-5 position, only the diode for position 6 lights and 
other non-intuitive combinations of lights come on in other positions. Is this how it's 
supposed to work?  If so, why?
