System Recovery
Your oscilloscope is designed to operate reliably for many years. The
application software runs on the Windows platform. Loading or removing
additional Windows applications can cause problems in the stability of the
operating system. Severe cases may require a reloading of the base
operating system and oscilloscope application. Teledyne LeCroy provides
you with the Acronis recovery application and a backup image in a partition
(drive D: ) of the instrument's hard drive.
Instructions for running the recovery application are stored on the
oscilloscope desktop. You can also download Oscilloscope System Recovery
Tools and Procedures, which contains instructions for using the Acronis®
True Image® Home application.
Since third-party recovery software is used, our instructions may not be the
most definitive or current. We encourage you to take advantage of
resources available on the Acronis website at www.acronis.com.
After the recovery procedure is done, re-activate Windows either by
Internet connection to Microsoft's Web site or by telephone. Have your
Windows Product Key number (shown on a sticker on your oscilloscope)
handy during Widows reactivation.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING:
The recovery process produces a replica of the operating system and
oscilloscope application software at the revision levels when the
oscilloscope was manufactured. Any further revisions of the
application software, Windows operating system, or virus scan
definition files are not automatically upgraded. Therefore, we
recommend that you upgrade the individual components to current
revision levels after completing the disk image recovery.
The current oscilloscope application software can be downloaded
directly from www.teledynelecroy.com. Since the calibration data for
the oscilloscope is stored in the D: drive, current calibration constants
are not overwritten during the recovery process.
