Preface
This document helps customers with data security concerns to sanitize or remove
memory devices from the Tektronix RSA500A Series, and RSA600A Series
Real-Time Sp
This product has data storage (memory) devices and data output devices (USB
ports). 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.

Terms that may be used in
this document
The procedures in this document are written to meet the requirements specified in:
NISPOM, DoD 5220.22–M, Chapter 8
ISFO Process Manual for Certification & Accreditation of Classified Systems
under NISPOM
This document covers the following Tektronix products:
RSA503A
RSA507A
RSA513A
RSA518A
RSA603A
RSA607A
No external documents are required to perform the procedures in this document.
The following terms may be used in this document:
Clear. This removes data on media/memory before reusing it in a secured
area. All reusable memory is cleared to deny access to previously stored
information by standard means of access.
Erase. This is equivalent to clear.
Instrument Declassification. A term that refers to procedures that must be
undertaken before an instrument can be removed from a secure environment.
Declassification procedures include memory sanitization and memory
removal, and sometimes both.
Media storage/data export device. Any of several devices that can be used
to store or export data from the instrument, such as a USB port.
Nonvolatile memory. Data is retained when the instrument is powered off.

instrument in Standby mode does not qualify as powering off. For these
products, you will need to either press a rear-panel OFF switch or remove the
power source from the instrument.

Device terms
User data. Describes the type of information stored in the device. Refers to
waveforms or other measurement data representing signals connected to the
instrument by users.
User settings. Describes the type of information stored in the device. Refers
to instrument settings that can be changed by the user.
Both. Describes the type of information stored in the device. It means that
both user data and user settings are stored in the device.
None. Describes the type of information stored in the device. It means that
neither user data nor user settings are stored in the device.
Directly. Describes how data is modified. It means that the user can modify
the data.
Indirectly. Describes how data is modified. It means that the instrument
system resources modify the data and that the user cannot modify the data.
