Troubleshooting
How to Clear or Sanitize a Nonfunctional Instrument
To sanitize a nonfunctional instrument, remove the Main and CPU boards and
return the instrument to Tektronix for installation of replacement boards.
How to Recover from Sanitizing the Nonvolatile Memory of the Instrument
After performing the Clear Flash and EEPROM Procedure, the power supply
will return to the factory default setting. Therefore, a recovery procedure is not
necessary.
