3152A-TEK to VX4750 Cross-Reference Guide

The table below cross-references the Tektronix VX4750 command set with the 3152A
(with TEK option) emulation command set. In cases where there are limitations or restrictions
on the use of the 3152A's emulation version of a command, these limitations are listed.

If you need additional compatibility information, please contact Racal Instruments Product Marketing.
