5.2 Data Storage and Security
The instrument is delivered with the 4 GByte SD card inserted and ready to use.
We recommend that you do not remove the SD card.
All instrument configuration data and user data are stored on the SD card. In
addition, a fallback firmware is stored on the the SD card to boot the instrument if
an update failed.
If you use the instrument in a secured environment, you can remove the SD card
before the instrument leaves this area. The SD card slot is under the right lid
under the battery pack.
You can also change the SD card if you need more memory. The instrument sup-
ports SD cards up to 32 GByte.

Storing and Packing
The storage temperature range of the instrument is given in the data sheet. If the
instrument is to be stored for a longer period of time, it must be protected against
dust.
Repack the instrument as it was originally packed when transporting or shipping.
The two protective foam plastic parts prevent the control elements and connec-
tors from being damaged. The antistatic packing foil avoids any undesired elec-
trostatic charging to occur.
If you do not use the original packaging, use a sturdy cardboard box of suitable
size and provide for sufficient padding to prevent the instrument from slipping
inside the package. Wrap antistatic packing foil around the instrument to protect it
from electrostatic charging.
