Digital key scanning. I guess that's the way the power-up functions work. Anyone correct me.

All Fatar actions use some scanning. The keybed is not based on two contact bars. And there is no array of all the same resistors for the pitch voltage (done by simple voltage dividing). On the other hand, this is why we got now different trigger and note priority modes on the reissue.
keep on turning these Moog knobs

Plus with a power on command you can imitated the slight inaccuracies of the old keyboard tuning...
