The procedure in this document is written to meet the requirements specifiedin:
NISPOM, DoD 5220.22–M, Chapter 8
ISFO Process Manual for Certification & Accreditation of Classified Systems
under NISPOM
The security instructions apply to these Tektronix products:
TTR503A

TCAL500-35F, TCAL500-35MF, TCAL500-35M
TCAL500-NF, TCAL500-NMF, TCAL500-NM
No external documents are required to perform the procedures 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.
Power off. Some instruments hav
still supplied to the instrument. For the purpose of clearing data, puttingthe
instrument in Standby mode does not qualify as powering off. For these

device from the instrument. Instructions are available in the product Service
Manual.
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.
Scrub. This is equivalent to sanitize.
User Accessible. User is able to directly retrieve the memory device contents.
User-modifiable. The user can write to the memory device during normal
instrument operation, using the instrument interface or remote control.
User-modifiable. The user can write to the memory device during normal
instrument operation, using the instrument interface or remote control.
