Product Usage Instructions
Cycle Power
The process of completely removing power from the device and its
components and allowing for adequate discharge. This process
includes a complete shutdown of the PC and/or chassis containing
the device; a reboot is not sufficient for the completion of this
process.
User Accessible Memory
The user-accessible memory on the PXI-2585 board allows users to
store arbitrary information to the component from the host using a
publicly distributed NI tool, such as a Driver API, the System
Configuration API, or MAX.
System Accessible Memory
The system-accessible memory on the PXI-2585 board can be read
and/or write addressable from the host without the need to
physically alter the product.
Clearing and Sanitization
Clearing is a logical technique to sanitize data in all
user-accessible storage locations for protection against simple
non-invasive data recovery techniques using the same interface
available to the user. Sanitization is a process to render access
to target data on the media infeasible for a given level of effort.
In this document, clearing is the degree of sanitization
described.

Terms and Definitions
Cycle Power: The process of completely removing power from the device and its components and allowing for adequate discharge. This process includes a complete shutdown of the PC and/or chassis containing the device; a reboot is not sufficient for the completion of this process.
Volatile Memory: Requires power to maintain the stored information. When power is removed from this memory, its contents are lost. This type of memory typically contains application specific data such as capture waveforms.
Non-Volatile Memory: Power is not required to maintain the stored information. Device retains its contents when power is removed. This type of memory typically contains information necessary to boot, configure, or calibrate the product or may include device power up states.
User Accessible: The component is read and/or write addressable such that a user can store arbitrary information to the component from the host using a publicly distributed NI tool, such as a Driver API, the System Configuration API, or MAX.
System Accessible: The component is read and/or write addressable from the host without the need to physically alter the product.
Clearing: Per NIST Special Publication 800-88 Revision 1, “clearing” is a logical technique to sanitize data in all User Accessible storage locations for protection against simple non-invasive data recovery techniques using the same interface available to the user; typically applied through the standard read and write commands to the storage device.
Sanitization: Per NIST Special Publication 800-88 Revision 1, “sanitization” is a process to render access to “Target Data” on the media infeasible for a given level of effort. In this document, clearing is the degree of sanitization described.
