The '''Tektronix 560 series (3-series) plug-ins''' are used with [[560-series scopes]].
The '''Tektronix 560 series (50s, 60s, 70s, 2-series, and 3-series) plug-ins''' are used with '''[[560-series scopes]]'''.


The earliest plug-ins for the 560 series of scopes were given numbers in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. These were either discontinued or renamed. Most went  into the 2-series, but a few went into the 3-series. For example, the [[60 | Type 60]] became the [[2A60]], but the [[72 | Type 72]] became the [[3A72]]. This happened at the same time that Tektronix changed the letter series plug-ins to the 1 series for their contemporary mainline scopes.
All later plug-in development for 560 series scopes went into 3-series plug-ins.

The Tektronix 560 series (50s, 60s, 70s, 2-series, and 3-series) plug-ins are used with 560-series scopes.

The earliest plug-ins for the 560 series of scopes were given numbers in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. These were either discontinued or renamed. Most went into the 2-series, but a few went into the 3-series. For example, the Type 60 became the 2A60, but the Type 72 became the 3A72. This happened at the same time that Tektronix changed the letter series plug-ins to the 1 series for their contemporary mainline scopes.

All later plug-in development for 560 series scopes went into 3-series plug-ins.
