For completeness, from the technical manual:

"The refresh logic, shown in sheet 6 of the print set, generates REF CLK H and the refresh address. Sig- nal REF CLK H is derived from a 555 timer (E5) which is set up as a free running oscillator, powered by the + IS V / + 12 V module input (V-555). The REF CLK H signal oscillates with a period of 14.5us and has a positive pulse width of 6us during each period."
