Preface
This document helps customers with data security concerns to sanitize or remove
memory devices from the RTX100B Series RF Signal Generators.
These products have 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.

Power off. Some instruments have a “Standby” mode, in which power is
still supplied to the instrument. For the purpose of clearing data, putting the

Sanitize. 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 will be moved (temporarily or permanently) from a secured area to a
non-secured area.
