The Tektronix 7A18 is a general-purpose 75 MHz dual-trace vertical plug-in for 7000-series scopes. Model 7A18N is identical except it omits the readout circuits.
Option 06 (first offered in 1975 catalog) adds offset voltage controls giving ±200 Div offset range.
The 200 MHz 7A26 and 400 MHz 7A24 share the same front panel layout and operation.

Option 06
-
7A18A Opt.06 Front. AC/GND/DC switches have an extra rightmost "DC Offset" position enabling the offset controls.
-
7A18A Opt.06 left side (rear). Note the two blue 10T-potentiometers for offset voltage adjustment.
-
7A18A Opt.06 - offset controls take the place of the Identify buttons on the standard model.
