The Engine Analyzer System was available from 1967 until 1975, when production of the 560 oscilloscope
series was terminated. To allow the rotational function generator to be used with [[7000-series scopes]],
Tek offered a combination of a modified timebase ([[7B53A]] MOD FB) and a [[TM500]] based power supply
([[PS501]]-1 MOD 730E) that were produced until 1985.
