MIDI clock out not working

Hey there…
a bit sad here… I sold my hermod original that was the main sequencer of all my setup to upgrade and the unit I got had some strange problem… squarp was super nice and replaced it quick but now my unit doesn’t seem to output anything from the midi out jack… :(…
clock/reset works
usb midi works
usb device works
midi in works
just not midi out :frowning:
I don’t know… is anyone had any issues ? any tips on what to try ?
tried the supplied trs to midi adapter and another on I found in my stuff… no clock or signal in any of my devices … I don’t see much other settings than the sync out menu - midi out - clock + transport… it works for the other protocols…just wanted to see if I am missing something…
any advice welcome… ;(
thanks
Phil
