The SM4357A is designed to provide a pin-to-pin replica of the Tektronix VX4357. This eases the
burden of integrating the SM4357A into preexisting test fixtures and makes re-cabling
unnecessary. Translation drivers are provided to make the software transition seamless, enabling
the VTI units to use the previously installed Tektronix driver calls. This ensures that any
application code written using the Tektronix plug&play drivers need not be modified.
