Non-Volatile Memory
This section contains information on the memory components available in your instrument.
The table provides details of the size of each memory component, its type, how it is used, its location,
volatility, and the sanitization procedure.
NOTE The instrument contains no user-accessible non-volatile memory, except for the Disk
Drive described in Item 7 of Tab le 5- 1. For this reason, as indicated in the tables below,
no sanitization procedure is required for any memory component except the Disk Drive.
