Tektronix 6130 Engineering Workstation

In a word, I've got it. No documentation, yet. The gentleman that I got it from wasn't expecting me to pick it up until Saturday, but my plans got changed, so I called him up and arranged to pick it up tonite. He's going to try to find the Documentation and will get back with me, it turns out he's only a couple miles away, so it's no biggy. I'm told it's a 6132, but the nameplate say's 6130, so how knows? The main computer is about the size of a old PC, but turned sideways. It also has a very large expansion unit the size of some computers that apparently houses a second SCSI Hard Drive (although I'm doubtful there is a HD in it anymore), and what appears to be a QIC-150 (doubt it's that big) tape drive. There is a shielded SCSI cable like what's normally used inside a computer. It has one empty card slot, and a 1Mb card in another slot. There is also a terminal with it, a "Ann Arbor XL Series" that connects via a Serial line. Does anyone have any idea what kind of terminal this is? It's very wierd, it's the only ASCII terminal that I've seen which is a portrait-mode terminal! Is this some kind of VT-100 compatible or something? The only thing I've ever seen that even comes close is some of the old Macintosh monitors. It will probably take me a while to get it ready to power up. It looks like the first thing I'd better do is give it a VERY good cleaning. The terminal and keyboard are nice and clean. The computer is pretty dirty. Zane | Zane H.
