Memory Clearing, Sanitization and Removal Procedures
Erase All
Erase All
This function removes all user files, user flatness calibrations, user I/Q calibrations, and resets all table
editors with original factory values, ensuring that user data and configurations are not accessible or
viewable. The instrument appears as if it is in its original factory state, however, the memory is not sanitized.
This action is relatively quick, typically taking less than one minute (the exact time depends on the number of
files).
Note that there is a similar but distinct function, as described below, that deletes all user files but does not
reset the table editors:
