The note names N4 O4 P4 Q4 J4 K4 L4 M4 N5 denote the Sarnathian (0|7 in UDP, sLsLLsLL) mode on N4 = C4. All octave transpositions use the appropriate octave number, and all alterations of a given note by accidentals have the same octave number as the original note. For example, in 13edo Nb4 is the note 1\13 below N4, and is enharmonic with M#4.

~~The symbols~~ # b x bb represent ~~alterations~~ by ~~the respective moschroma~~. t and d represent half-moschromas in systems such as 18edo and 26edo where the moschroma can be split into two equal parts.

FRN accidentals are analogous to diatonic ones:

* # b represent alteration by one moschroma (L − s)

* x bb represent alteration by two moschomas.

* t and d represent half-moschromas in systems such as 18edo and 26edo where the moschroma can be split into two equal parts.

* In edo systems, ^ v denote alteration by one edo step.

When writing a note name, the nominal is given first, then the accidentals are listed in order from smallest to largest, then the octave number: e.g. M^db4 in 36edo means M4 altered by ^ (1\36) + d (-2\36) + b (-4\36), that is M4 flattened by 5\36.
