After the Instrument Has Already Been Placed in a Secure Environment

If the instrument that this additional disk drive is intended to be used with is already inside of a
controlled secure environment you will not be able to transfer the instrument specific factory
calibration data to the additional disk drive. When the instrument is eventually removed from the
controlled secure environment, with the original disk drive left inside the controlled secure
environment, follow the procedure below to put the additional disk drive into service.
1. Install the additional disk drive into the instrument and power it on. See the
Instrument Operating System
2. Verify that the instrument software is the latest version. For instructions on how to verify the
currently installed software version, as well as how to know what the latest version is, see the
Software Updates
3. Since the instrument specific factory calibration data file is not available to be copied onto this
additional disk drive a complete instrument calibration, including all adjustments, will need to
be performed.
4. When the instrument is to be placed back into the controlled secure environment backup the
factory calibration data to a USB storage device. See the
Alignment Data Wizard (for processor type PC8 or PC9)
instructions.
5. Place a copy of the latest instrument software, as verified in
storage device.
6. Remove the additional disk drive from the instrument and write the instrument model and
serial number on it for future identification. Place the additional disk drive back in the static
safe bag that it was shipped in and place it in a safe place until it is needed again.
7. Return the instrument to the controlled secure environment along with the USB storage
device.
8. Re-install the original disk drive into the instrument and turn it on.
9. Verify that the instrument software on the original disk drive is the same version that was just
placed on the USB storage device.
10.If the instrument software on the original disk drive is not the same as what was just placed on
the USB storage device update the instrument software on this drive using the software
installed on the USB storage device. See the
instructions.
11.Once the instrument software has been updated restore the new instrument factory
calibration data from the previously backed up calibration data file on the USB storage device.
See the Data Backup or Restore using Alignment Data Wizard (for processor type PC8 or PC9)
section in this document for instructions.
12.The instrument is now ready for use and the USB storage device can be properly disposed of if
necessary.
