==TelequipmenT Type 43==
==Plugin Interfaces==
I've got a manual for the TelequipmenT Type 43 (D43/D.43/D.43R/S.43) which is from 1965, the one on this wiki is newer - I think that mine is from before Tektronix bought Telequipment.  The one I've got has appendices for plugins D, G and H which are not in the 1968 printing. I see that there might be separate manuals for the plugins on the wiki - I've not checked all three but I see that my appendix for the H plugin has different content. All I've spotted so far is that the one on the wiki doesn't list all of the transistors (though the schematic shows the types) and is missing the two variable inductors, L21 and L22, which are listed as:


2.2/5.1μH Variable Inductor (Brown/Yellow)
Not sure if these photos have a place on the main wiki - the 7000 series are a lot deeper and a fraction wider.
 
The TM500, 5000 series and Telequipment plugins share the same chassis glide extrusions - but locations and widths of the glide keys and pins on the backs of the plugins prevent mishaps :-). The 11000 series is almost identical to the 7000 series but for the top optional connector which is shaped to prevent plugging into the wrong frame.
I might add this to the [[Telequipment_Type_H|H plugin page]] or its Discussion section.

The TM500 and 5000 series interfaces are very similar to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Amusement_Machine_and_Marketing_Association JAMMA] (Japanese Arcade Manufacture Marketing Association) but some connections are paired and some have a notch which removes a connection position.

The various mainframe and plugin interfaces have different pitches to keep us on our toes.
