The plug-in interface of the 560-series scopes is a single 24-pin Amphenol connector per slot (horizontal/vertical).

560-series plug-ins are designed to drive the CRT's deflection plates directly. The impedance seen by the differential signal of the plug-in looking into the mainframe is typically 14.3 pF and has no resistive component. The mainframe contains trimmer capacitors to standardize this capacitance.

The deflection sensitivity of the mainframe to differential deflection signals at the plug-in connector is about 19.5 V/div for the vertical and 18.5 V/div for the horizontal plates. The sensitivity is not standardized, it depends on the CRT and high voltage. This means that when plug-ins are swapped between mainframes, they need to be recalibrated.
