Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must follow the LLM translation guideline, revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 1,931 articles in the main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation. A model attribution edit summary is Content in this edit is translated from the existing German Wikipedia article at [[:de:Dietz-Computer-Systeme]]; see its history for attribution.

The systems were used for industrial and business data processing, as well as for technical and scientific purposes. The popular computer-aided design software, Technovision, ran on the systems produced by Dietz, this being the result of Dietz's earlier acquisition of CAD expertise from a Switzerland-based company.[1][2]
After attempts to run the software on Dietz 600 systems, Technovision was first deployed on the Perkin-Elmer 3200 series, successor models to the Interdata 7/32 and 8/32, and employed Tektronix vector graphics terminals. The T2000 was a two-dimensional CAD system, whereas the T3000 was a two- and three-dimensional CAD product.[3]:36 After the acquisition of Dietz by Norsk Data, the products were migrated to run on the ND-500 series, also employing "vector refresh" (or refresh tube) displays, but adding support for colour raster displays.[4]
