Archiving and Restoring Factory Calibration Data Files

Archiving and Restoring Factory Calibration Data Files
This section describes how to archive ("back up") the instrument's factory
calibration data to an external memory device, or restore the calibration data
from an external USB Memory Device. The appropriate device type depends
on your instrument's environment; for details, see
Device" on page 42
The backup and restore procedures differ according to the
Revision
— To determine the instrument software revision, follow the procedure
— To determine which backup or restore procedures should be used,

Selection of USB Memory Device

The appropriate choice of USB Memory Device depends on the circumstances.
In cases where the calibration data will not need to be brought into a
controlled area, a USB Flash drive is generally a good choice.
In cases where the calibration data must be moved into a controlled area, USB
Flash devices are not permitted. In these cases, a good choice is to back up the
calibration data to write-once optical media such as a CD-R, DVD±R or BD-R
disc.
The optical disc can be written using an external writer device outside the
controlled area, and then read using a further external reader device situated in
the controlled area.

Tools Required

To perform backup or restore operations, you need:
— a mouse with a USB interface
— an alphanumeric keyboard with a USB interface
— a portable USB Memory Device. For details, see
