Removing Data from Memory (Option 006 Only)
Removing Data from Memory (Option 006 Only)
When moving the signal generator from a secure development environment, there are several security
functions you can use to remove classified proprietary information from the instrument. Security
functions also have equivalent SCPI commands for remote operation (“System Subsystem (:SYSTem)”
commands; refer to the SCPI Command Reference)
CAUTION The signal generator has several memory types (described in Table 13-1 on page 299,
and Table 13-2 on page 301), and each is used to store a specific type of data. Before
removing sensitive data, understand how each memory type is used.
