iiDSA8300 Instrument, Sampling Modules Declassification and Security Instructions
Preface
This document helps customers with data security concerns to sanitize or remove memory devices from the DSA8300
Digital Serial Analyzer and its related sampling modules and m odule a ccessories.
The DSA8300 has data storage (memory) devices and data output devices (USB ports). Some of the modules have memory
devices. These instructions tell how to clear or sanitize the memory devices and disable the data output devices. The
instructions also tell how to declassify an instrument that is not functioning.
