The '''Tektronix 834''' is a portable serial protocol analyzer. | The '''Tektronix 834''' is a portable "programmable data communications tester" (serial protocol analyzer) for RS-232 (V.24) circuits. An option 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. | |||
In simulation mode, operation is user-programmable with up to 99 program steps that can reference up to 50 "parameter buffers" (registers). Some standard tests like all-character tests or "quick brown fox" tests are predefined. | |||
