Memory Declassification Procedure
Memory Declassification Procedure
Some test equipment users have a need to "declassify" or "sanitize" their instruments for security
purposes. This involves following a procedure that clears all user data from the instrument´s
memory. The result is a sanitized instrument that can be removed from a secure area without any

Follow the procedure below to ensure that your DCA no longer contains any user configurations
or data.

Although the FIFO memory cannot be retrieved by the instrument after the unit has been turned
off, it is stored in memory nonetheless. The following process stores "noise" into all four channels
of FIFO memory.
a Install modules (any measurement module) into both left and right slots. Do NOT connect any
signal to the inputs of the channels.
b Enable all four channels by pressing the numbered Channel key above the modules.
c Change # Points/Waveform = 4096 (max). This sets up the DCA to overwrite all waveform
memory.
