A separate table-top unit in a plastic housing with integrated power supply developed from the combination of panel-mount units with metal table-top housings. The legendary 1206 was born and launched in 1978.
The image shows a 1206 as it was produced in 1980. Later on, the unit was equipped with sliding scales for switching between different display standards, or horizontal and vertical orientation.
