This document helps customers with data security concerns to sanitize or remove
memory devices from TDS820 Digitizing Oscilloscopes.
These products have data storage (memory) devices. These instructions tell how
to clear or sanitize the memory devices.

TekSecure™ Procedure
All user storab
internal nonvolatile memory. TekSecure capability is available for erasing all
reference waveforms and instrument setups.
To start TekSecure, press SHIFT UTILITY (front panel) > System (main) >
Config (pop-up) > Tek Secure Erase Memory (main) > OK Erase Setup & Ref
Memory (side).
Executing TekSecure™ performs the following operations:
1. Replaces all waveforms in Reference memories w ith an “empty” all zeros
pattern. This can be verified by pressing the MORE button (front panel).
Observe that the Ref1 – Ref4 selections are not highlighted and, if they are
pressed, nothing happens (no waveform is restored because no reference
waveforms are available).
2. Replaces the current front panel setup and all saved setups in Setup memories
with the factory setup. This can be verified by following these steps:
a. Press SAVE/RECALL SETUP (front panel) > Recall Saved Setup
(main).
b. Observe that all ten Recall Setup selections indicate “factory” (rather
than “user”).
c. Observe that the current setup matches the factory setup as described in
the TDS820 User Manual, Table E-1: Factory Initialization defaults.
le data (reference waveforms and instrument setup s) are stored in
3. Calculates the checksums of all waveform memory and setup memory
locations in order to verify successful completion of waveform and setup
memory
displays a warning message; if the c hecksum calculation is successful, Tek
Secure displays a confirmation message.
Using TekSecure will not affect calibration of the instrument because the factory
calibration constants are stored on the Acquisition board completely separate
from any acquisition data or user files. This allows complete erasure/removal
of any secure data without affecting oscilloscope calibration. It also allows the
oscilloscope to be calibrated in a nonsecure site, and then used in a secure area
