I have an HP-48 prototype calculator which connects to a debugger box,
which itself is conneced to an HP-UX machine.
This special HP-48 unit is called 'handset' in the original HP documentation.

NB: The handset is used for in-circuit emulation and debugging.

So it may be a matter of perspective;-)
