Secure Environment Mode Option
Secure environment mode is compliant to National Industrial Security Program Operating
Manual (NISPOM) Chapter 8 requirements.
Secure environment mode is called option SEC.
When secure environment mode is installed, trace and setup data are stored to internal
volatile memory (rather than internal non-volatile memory). Oscilloscope setup,
waveform, and trace data are erased when the power is shut off. This ensures that any
setup, waveform, and trace data will not be visible to the next user upon power-up. The
clock and LAN settings (and GPIB settings on 5000/6000 Series oscilloscopes) are not
discarded upon power-down.
To permanently store data, you can save it to an external device through one of the
oscilloscope’s USB ports.
Once installed, secure environment mode cannot be disabled.
When installed, the secure environment mode license will appear as SEC in the Installed
Licenses line of the “About Oscilloscope” display. To access the About Oscilloscope
display, press the [Utility] key, then press the Service softkey, then press the About
Oscilloscope softkey.
