Based on this picture, it appears that it would have RGB BNC connectors.

That implies synch-on-green video signalling. If you don't have a
synch-on-green RGB monitor, then you'll need an adapter to convert
that to VGA (which splits the synch signals out on a separate pin).
These shouldn't be too hard to find because synch-on-green was fairly
common.

I have other Tektronix hardware from this time frame and the video
output tends to be standard RGB (possibly synch-on-green) BNC
connectors.
I'm still pursuing this, but it's taking its time.
Are there any good converters for RGB? Like to VGA?
