Regarding the Tektronix | Regarding the Tektronix 4000-Series terminals, ex-Tek employee Dave Brown recalled: | ||
<blockquote> | <blockquote> | ||
The 4100 series was an intelligent family of terminals that added segment capability to Tek Graphics. They would fully emulate the 4010/4014 family. Segments allowed you to define a graphic object or string and display it. Rather than going back to the host to redraw, you could change the viewport to zoom and pan and it would do so from the stored data. The 4114 was a DVST so limited to vectors. Others in the family were the 4012 mono raster, 4013 color raster, and 4115 high resolution color with auto convergence. They had some 3D models as well. | The 4100 series was an intelligent family of terminals that added segment capability to Tek Graphics. They would fully emulate the 4010/4014 family.
