-The '''Tektronix 1230''' is a logic analyzer chassis that supports 16 to 64 channels, 100 MHz asynchronous, 25 MHz synchronous.
+The '''Tektronix 1230''' is a logic analyzer chassis that supports 16 to 64 channels at 100 MHz asynchronous or 25 MHz synchronous capture rate.
-It was [[introduced in 1989]], a year after the [[1225]] and [[1220]].
+It was [[introduced in 1989]], a year after the very similar [[1225]] and [[1220]], the difference being board layout and the number of channels. The [[1230B]] variant added an internal rechargeable battery pack for portable operation.
+The number of channels depends on the number of acquisition cards installed. The mainframe will accept 2 to 4 cards that included the [[1230E1]] 16-channel card
+(16×25 MHz state channels, 8×50 MHz or 4×100 MHz timing channels), and the [[1230DSM]] digitizing scope card (2×100 MS/s).  A bundle of a 1230 with a 1230DSM was sold as the 1230D instrument.
-The number of acquisition channels depends on the number of acquisition cards installed. There is 16 channels per card and 2 to 4 cards could be installed.
-The 1230 is very similar to the Tektronix [[1225]] and [[1220]], the difference being board layout and the number of channels.
 Four user-installable option boards were available − [[parallel printer interface]], [[RS-232 interface]], [[GPIB interface]] and on-line notes in foreign languages.
-Tektronix also had a software package [[S43R101]] that would run on IBM PC compatible machines. It used the RS-232 port to control the analyzer.
+Tektronix also had a software package for DOS PCs ([[S43R101]]) to control the analyzer via the RS-232 port.
-A digitizing scope card could be installed with a 100 MS/s resolution on two channels [[1230DSM]]. It was also available as a all in one package (1230D).
-There was another variant, the 1230B. The only difference was that it had a self-contained internal rechargeable battery.
 An optional rack mount adapter was also available, [[016-0947-00]].
