How to Clear or Sanitize a Non-Functional Instrument
DSA8200
These products contain an open architecture PC with a removable hard drive. All
user storable data such as waveforms, instrument settings, and screen shots are
stored on the removable hard drive. The hard drive is located on the rear panel.
Remove the hard drive for storage or destruction. Additional hard drives can
be purchased from Tektronix.
A read / write CD drive is standard and located on the front panel. Remove all
CDs and/or DVDs. Rewritable CDs can be formatted, stored, or destroyed.
Non-rewritable CDs can be stored or destroyed.
Turn off the power for at least 20 seconds to clear volatile memory.

Modules
The non-volatile memory in these products contains no user storable data
(waveforms or instrument settings).
Turn off the power for at least 20 seconds to clear volatile memory.
80A02 Module
This product contains no volatile or non-volatile memory
80C01, 80C02, 80C03,
80C04, 80C05, 80C06,
80C07, 80C08, 80C09,
80C10, 80C11, 80C12
modules (including all
options)
The non-volatile memory in these products contains no waveform data, but
does contain a single user storable instrument parameter pair (User Wavelength,
composed of both a wavelength value, and an associated scale factor value).
The 80C10 product contains two pairs.
If the 80Cxx is nonfunctional, or if it is functional but there is no functional
host mainframe available to perform the following procedure, there is no
means available to clear wavelength(s) and scale factor(s) and set them to
factory defaults. In this case, destruction of the module is the only means
to sanitize it.
If the 80Cxx is functional and another host mainframe is available that also is
functional, perform the procedure
Sanitize 80Cxx Module to Factory Default
Settings for User Wavelength(s) and Scale(s)
located under the
Clear and
Sanitize Procedures
to sanitize user wavelength(s) and scale factor(s).
Turn off the power for at least 20 seconds to clear volatile memory.
