         Typically a specialized display for monitoring

         TV sync and video signals.  May take a range
         of plug ins/adaptors.

         Google search on
                 tektronix waveform monitor 1480
         returns 50 odd  hits, including a .pdf manual.

         'R' usually means:
                 set up for 19" rack mount
