User's Manual

Memory Cleaning Limitations:
The LINUX operating system, application firmware, FPGA configuration in the internal
Compact Flash memory card are factory programmed or updated during a firmware
update, contain no user data, are not unique to the instrument, and cannot be cleaned.
The internal Compact Flash memory card contains application log files that cannot be
cleaned. They save a limited rolling history of status and diagnostic information for the
instrument for use by service personnel.
The instrument serial number and calibration constants that are stored on Compact
Flash memory card cannot be modified by the user and cannot be cleaned.
The Fluke 1760 Power Quality Recorder does not provide secure erasure of
memories/files. Consequently, it may be possible to recover data from the 1760 even
after these memory cleaning instructions have been followed. In addition, some files that
cannot be cleaned by this procedure, such as application log files, may contain Ethernet
network addresses and other information that could conceivably be used to identify
specific instruments, when and where they recorded data, and other potentially sensitive
information.
