+The '''Tektronix 834''' is a portable "programmable data communications tester" (serial protocol analyzer) for RS-232 (V.24) circuits.  [[015-0361-00 | Option 2]] added a current loop (20/60 mA) input.
 It can be used as a serial transmission monitor, modem or terminal simulator, or as a bit and block error rate tester (BERT).
-It supported ASCII, EBCDIC and hexadecimal displays on its 12-character alphanumeric display, for data formats with 5 to 9 bits/ character (including parity), asynchronous or synchronous (including HDLC), from 50 to 19200 bits/s.

 ROM packs were available to extend the 834's functions for specific protocols.
