The '''Tektronix CT8101''' is a printing console terminal for use as an optional accessory with the 8000-series [[8001]] and [[8002]] Microprocessor Labs.
The '''Tektronix CT8101''' is a printing console terminal for use as an optional accessory with the 8000-series [[8001]] and [[8002]] Microprocessor Labs.
It is a rebranded Texas Instruments model 743 thermo-printing terminal, from the "Silent 700" series.
It has an RS-232 port that supports two speeds, 110 baud and 300 baud.  It does not have an acoustic coupler (TI's 745 did).
It is a terminal, not a general purpose computer, although it is based on a Texas Instruments TMS 8080 microprocessor, a second-sourced [[Intel 8080]].


The CT8101 connects to the [[8000-series]] Microprocessor Labs through an [[RS-232 interface]] on the System Communications module. Data formats and baud rates are selectable for EIA and TTY operation.
