Current indicator. Balanced pedal for SWELL. Balanced pedal for GREAT (and Sub Bass). See the similar Tellers opus 989 built 13 years later. Kerner & Merchant installed a new control system in 2012, which replaced the Tellers switching system, replaced the stop rails with re-engraved tabs, replaced the combination action, and added MIDI to each division.
