The '''Tektronix Type T''' is a timebase plug-in primarily intended for use in the [[536]] X-Y scope.  It contains trigger and sweep circuitry.  The typical use of a Type T plug-in is as the X-axis plug-in in a 536, to make the 536 behave like a normal oscilloscope instead of an X-Y scope. However, there is no capability for internal triggering – a jumper must be connected from the Vertical Signal Out on the 536 to the External Trig on the T.
