| Scale Signature || Yes (optional on mos pages) || The mos's scale signature in the form "xL ys", or for non-octave mosses, <nowiki>"xL ys<p/q>"</nowiki>, "xL ys⟨p/q⟩", or "xL ys (p/q-equivalent)". If left blank and used on a mos page, then the page's title will be used.

|-

| Step Ratio || No (optional) || The step ratio of the mos, denoted as a fraction p/q. If not simplified, then the ratio is automatically simplified. If left blank, then the step ratio 2/1 is used by default.
| Step Ratio || No (optional) || The step ratio of the mos, denoted as a fraction p/q and separated with a slash. If left blank, then the step ratio "2/1" is used by default.
|-
|-
| Bright Gens Up || No (optional) || The number of bright generators going up needed to produce the mode for which notation is applied. If a mode is denoted using its [[UDP]] (up|dp), this is the value up (u times p). If left blank, then the brightest mode is used by default.
| Bright Gens Up || No (optional) || The number of bright generators going up needed to produce the mode for which notation is applied. In [[UDP notation]], this corresponds to the value u in the UDP of u|d, or up (u times p) in the UDP of up<nowiki>|</nowiki>dp for multi-period mosses. If left blank, then the brightest mode is used by default.
|-
|-
| Note Symbols || No (optional) || A string of note symbols, such as CDEFGAB (for standard notation) and JKLMNOP (for [[diamond-MOS]] notation). This should be entered as a string, where one character is one note name. If left blank, then standard notation (for 5L 2s) or diamond-MOS notation (for anything else) is used by default.
| Note Symbols || No (optional) || A sequence of note symbols, such as "CDEFGAB" and "JKLMNOP", the default for standard notation and [[diamond-MOS]] respectively, if left blank.
|-
|-
| Sharp Symbol || No (optional) || The symbol used to denote raising by a chroma, usually a sharp (#) or diamond-MOS's am/amp symbol (&). If left blank, then either # or & is used by default.
| Sharp Symbol || No (optional) || The symbol used to denote raising by a chroma, usually a sharp (#) or "am/amp" symbol (&), the default for standard notation and diamond-MOS respectively, if left blank.
|-
|-
| Flat Symbol || No (optional) || The symbol used to denote lowering by a chroma, usually a flat (b) or diamond-MOS's at symbol (@). If left blank, then either b or @ is used by default.
| Flat Symbol || No (optional) || The symbol used to denote lowering by a chroma, usually a flat (b) or "at" symbol (@), the default for standard notation and diamond-MOS respectively, if left blank.

If a step ratio is entered without being simplified, the edo (or ed{{angbr|equave|}}) displayed will reflect that by being a larger division of the equave. An example of this is 5L 2s in 24edo, whose step ratio is 4/2. However, notation for the additional notes, which may be notated using ups and downs, are currently not added for the sake of keeping the output simplified.
