RUNNING THE TEKEM (TEKTRONIX EMULATION) VERIFICATION TEST
,-----,-----------------
When a TEKEM or TEKEM+ disk, number 5l07l6-xx, has been loaded in
the workstation, the 790 workstation should operate as if it were
a Tektronix 4115 workstation.
The TEKEM test checks that the 790
is operating similar to a 4115 workstation.
The test checks that
the workstation will:
Display the basic background colors
Display some primitives and attributes
(Primitives are
basic drawing parts, such as lines and text.
Attributes
are qualities that change the appearance of a drawing,
such as color and shading.)
Display a crosshair cursor and allow the crosshair cursor
to be moved' vertically and horizontally on the color
display screen (The crosshair cursor is a horizontal line
and a vertical line that intersect to define a location on
the screen of the color display.)
Test that the tablet is working correctly
Preparing to Run the Test

switch, and the disk will begin to load the microcode into
