Plate 1 (just left of pump 1) is connected to gear 2.  Plate 2 is connected to gear 3 and so on, wrapping around from the beginning to create a cycle--in the layout above, plate 3 is shown connected back to gear 1.  Plate '''i''' in an '''n'''-step repeater is connected to gear '''(i ''mod'' n)+1'''.

This allows for a sequential repeater with any n steps, where n is an integer greater than 1.

The bottom right channel has no plate, so the bottom pump just passes the water.  Thus, odd steps are allowed. The gear assembly above the bottom pump can optionally be attached to a lever so that the repeater can be switched off and return to a known state.

The bottom right channel has no plate, so the left pump just passes the water.  Thus, odd steps are allowed, though they add extra ticks for passing the water.
