The 560 series scopes which were introduced with the [[560]] and [[561]] in 1961 were tube scopes that began to introduce some solid state circuitry. They use [[560-series plug-ins]] (exception: [[560]] and [[561]] only takes 2-series because of weak power supply).

The only exception is the 565, which includes built-in trigger, timebase, and horizontal amplifier circuitry.
The 560 series included the [[560]], [[561]], [[564]], [[565]], [[567]], and [[568]].
