Saving and Printing Data

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 it is ordered with the oscilloscope. When adding secure environment mode after oscilloscope purchase, the option is called model N5427A, and the oscilloscope must be returned to an Agilent service center for installation.

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, LAN, and GPIB settings 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 can not be disabled. Secure environment mode is available beginning with system software version 3.50. As a precaution against attempting to defeat secure environment mode, this option prevents older software from being installed.

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.
