Secure-Environment Workplace
1-10 PN: 10580-00277 Rev. E Spectrum Master UG
1-16 Tilt Bail Stand
The attached Tilt Bail can be used for desktop operation. The tilt bail provides a backward tilt
for improved stability and air flow. To deploy the tilt bail, pull the bottom of the tilt bail away
from the back of the instrument. To store the tilt bail, push the bottom of the bail towards the
back of the instrument and snap the bail into the clip on the back of the instrument.
1-17 Secure-Environment Workplace
This section describes the Option 7 and Frequency Blanking, types of memory in the
Spectrum Master, how to delete stored user files in internal memory, and recommended
usage in a secure-environment workplace.
Option 7, Secure Data
Option 7, Secure Data will set the instrument to allow saving information to only an external
USB flash drive. Saving to the internal memory is disabled. When Option 7 is installed, itis
always On. It can be disabled only if a Service Center or other repair facility removes
Option 7 from the instrument.
Frequency Blanking
Option 7 allows the user to hide the displayed frequency values. Frequency values displayed
on the screen and menus are replaced with ##.####. To enable frequency blanking press the
Shift key, then the System (8) key. Press the System Options submenu key, then the Reset
submenu key. Press the Frequency Blanking submenu key so that On
is underlined. Setting
Frequency Blanking back to Off
will preset the instrument to factory default settings.
After frequency blanking is enabled the user is not able to restore the frequency readouts.
Following is a list of the security measures that have been taken to protect the frequency
information after Frequency Blanking is turned on.
1. Turning off frequency blanking presets the instrument (and the frequencies) to the
factory default settings.
2. Turning off the instrument presets the instrument to the factory default settings and
turns off frequency blanking.
3. Presetting the instrument turns off frequency blanking and restores the factory default
settings.
4. Frequency blanking is available only with Option 7 to ensure that user files and
calibration files are not stored in the internal memory of the instrument.
Caution
Note that even with Option 7 enabled, operating parameters (such as frequency
range and power level) that are set by the user are stored in the Spectrum Master
EEPROM when the Spectrum Master is turned OFF. These parameters can be
erased, however, via a Master Reset operation, as described later in this chapter.
