The model’s user guide explains how to store states outside the product. Keysight Technologies cannot be held responsible for any lost files or data resulting from the clearing, or sanitization of memory.
Instrument sanitization is typically required when an instrument is moved from a secure to a non-secure environment, such as when it is returned to the factory for calibration. Keysight memory sanitization procedures are designed for customers who need to meet the requirements specified by the US Defense Security Service (DSS). These requirements are specified in the “Clearing and Sanitization Matrix”...

The procedure erases the user state information. Read this entire document before using any sanitization procedure. Failure to do so may necessitate returning the instrument to an Authorized Keysight Service Center for firmware downloads and recalibration.

Procedure for Declassifying a Faulty Instrument If the instrument is not able to power on, the user information cannot be cleared using the front panel or the remote interface. The only choice in this situation is to take manual steps to remove any user information that may be present.
