Secure Usage Scenarios

The following information is meant to serve as a guideline when using the removable disk drive
feature in an X-Series Signal Analyzer along with an additional disk drive option. How you choose
to ultimately use this is up to you and your security requirements.

Removing an Instrument from a Secure Environment

If an instrument that is being used inside of a controlled secure environment needs to be removed
for servicing, calibration, or any other non-secure use outside of the controlled secure environment
perform the following procedure:
1. Remove the disk drive assembly from the instrument. See the Disk Drive Removal and
Installation section of this document for removal instructions.
2. Verify that the disk drive is marked with the model and serial number of the instrument that it
has been removed from and place it inside of a static safe bag and place in a safe place.
3. All potential user data has been removed from the instrument and it can now be removed from
the secure environment.
4. Once the instrument has been removed from the secure environment install the additional disk
drive with the model and serial number of the instrument recorded on it.
5. The instrument is now ready for either use outside of the secure environment or for servicing.

Returning an Instrument to a Secure Environment

When the instrument is returned from servicing, calibration, or any other non-secure use, perform
the following procedure before returning it to a controlled secure environment:
1. Backup the instrument factory calibration data onto a USB storage device. See the Calibration
Data Backup and Restore section of this guide for instructions.
2. Remove the disk drive assembly from the instrument. See the Disk Drive Removal and
Installation section of this document for removal instructions.
3. Verify that the disk drive is marked with the model and serial number of the instrument that it
has been removed from and place it inside of a static safe bag and place in a safe place.
4. Return the instrument to the controlled secure environment along with the USB storage device
that the instrument specific factory calibration data was backed up to.
