Best ways to drive a Tektronix terminal?

To be honest I hadn't got a chance to look at the back of the machine yet
as it was dark when I brought it home. Only visible problem is someone
has clipped the ground wire in the electrical cord (simple).

I'll check tonight. I just know the next stop for this machine was a
landfill if I hadn't intercepted it.
Those displays were so unique that I knew I had to have at least one
although I was kinda looking for the tabletop model instead of the floor
standing model I ended up with.
