To show only the minor intervals in this example, consider that the UDP here is 5<nowiki>|</nowiki>1, meaning that the ascending chain starts with 5 generators and the descending chain starts with 1 generator. Going up one more generator produces the augmented 4th, so it's not necessary to extend the ascending chain. Going down 4 more generators produces all of the minor intervals and one more after that produces the diminished 5th, so the descending chain should be extended further by 4.

Two values can be entered; the first will be for the ascending chain and the second for the descending chain, as shown below.
This template supports entering separate values for the ascending and descending extend values; the first will be for the ascending chain and the second for the descending chain, as shown below.
