Setting the Date and Time
Users with administrator rights can set the date and time for the internal real time clock
as follows:
Opening the Date and Time Properties dialog box
1. Press the SETUP key.
2. Press the "Display" softkey.
3. Select the "General" tab in the "Display" dialog box.
4. Press the "Set Date and Time" button to open the standard Windows "Date and
Time Properties" dialog box.
5. If necessary, toggle the "Date and Time Format" between German (DE) and US.
After you have made a change and closed the dialog box, the new date and time is
also adopted by the instrument.
3.1.7 Protecting Data Using the Secure User Mode
During normal operation, the R&S
FSW uses a solid-state drive to store its operating
system, instrument firmware, instrument self-alignment data, and any user data cre-
ated during operation. If necessary, the solid-state drive can be removed from the
R&S
FSW and locked in a secure place to protect any classified data it may contain.
Redirecting storage to volatile memory
Alternatively, to avoid storing any sensitive data on the R&S
FSW permanently, the
secure user mode
was introduced (option R&S
FSW-K33). In secure user mode the
instrument’s solid-state drive is write-protected so that no information can be written to
memory permanently. Data that the R&S
FSW normally stores on the solid-state drive
is redirected to volatile memory instead, which remains available only until the instru-
ment is switched off. This data includes:
●
Windows 7 operating system files
●
Firmware shutdown files containing information on last instrument state
