Remove configuration data on a PC

120
To remove configuration data and sensitive information from the D20E:
1.
Connect the D20E to a Windows PC running DAPserver Studio.
2.
Save your configuration data using DAPserver Studio; see section:
project from a device
3.
Replace the configuration data with the D20E default configuration data available
from DAPserver Studio; see section:
To prevent non-intended use of the unit, remove the modules, dismantle the unit, and
recycle the metal when possible.
There are no special requirements for disposal of the unit at the end its service life.
However, GE recommends that you destroy the device (i.e., shred, disintegrate, pulverize, or
incinerate by burning the device in a licensed incinerator) as per Draft NIST Special
Publication 800-88 Revision 1, Guidelines for Media Sanitization, Recommendations of the
National Institute of Standards and Technology:
(http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/drafts/800-88-rev1/sp800_88_r1_draft.pdf).
When a PC application (that is, DAPserver Studio) is used to configure the D20E,
configuration data resides on the data storage media (e.g., hard drives, memory cards,
etc.) of the PC running the configuration application.
The D20E configuration data can be removed from the PC by either:
Recommended: Physically removing and destroying the data storage media, or
Using a program to securely wipe (that is, completely erase) the data storage media
(that is, not just reformat or remove the names of the files from the file allocation
table).
