Tektronix 3S6
Programmable sampling plug-in 3S6 Front Compatible with 560-series scopes Produced from 1969 to (?) Manuals Tektronix 3S6 Manual (OCR) (All manuals in PDF format unless noted otherwise)

The Tektronix 3S6 is a dual-trace sampling module for 560-series scopes, particularly the 568.

It interfaces with the sampling heads through a connector on its rear panel (using S-series sampling head extenders). Deflection factor, DC offset and polarity, as well as normal/smooth mode can be programmed externally from a controller such as the 240 / 241 Programmer. The 067-0584-99 Remote Programmer calibration fixture is available to do this manually during setup/calibration.

In a typical setup, the programming unit is connected to the 568 using a multi-conductor cable. The 568 routes those signals to the plug-ins.
