you need to either press a rear-panel OFF switch or remove the power source from the instrument.

Remove.

Sanitize.

This is a physical means to clear the data by removing the memory device from the instrument.

This eradicates the data from media/memory so that the data cannot be recovered by other means or
technology. This is typically used when the device is moved (temporarily or permanently) from a secured area to
a nonsecured area.

Scrub.

User Accessible.

User-modifiable.

This is equivalent to sanitize.

User is able to directly retrieve the memory device contents.

The user can write to the memory device during normal instrument operation, using the instrument

interface or remote control.

Volatile memory.

Data is lost when the instrument is powered off.
