Restoring the Hard Disk Image
The Tektronix Logic Analyzer comes with a set of CDs (labeled TLA5000 Hard
Disk Image) containing the Microsoft Windows operating system and the latest
application software. All software required to restore the hard disk drive to its
factory configuration is included on the CDs. The process of reloading the
software on the hard disk will destroy any files or programs installed on the hard
disk and replace them with the original factory configuration. Therefore, you
should back up any files that you want to save to another media before restoring
the hard disk image.
CAUTION. To avoid destroying the entire contents of the hard disk, save any files
or applications by backing them up to another media before continuing with this
procedure.
Before loading the Hard Disk Image software, make sure that you back up any
files that a customer may want to keep to an external storage device.
You can find most TLA user files using the Windows Search utility. For
example, open Windows Explorer and select the C:\My Documents folder. Right
click on the folder and select Search. Enter one of the suffixes from Table 6--5 to
locate the files in the current folder and all subfolders (you may want to search
for other file suffixes depending on the files installed on the logic analyzer).
Table 6- 5: TLA user file suffixes
Suffix Description
.tla TLA setup f iles
.tsf TLA symbol fil es
.tbf Tektronix binary format
.tls TLA script file
.txt Tektronix TLA data exchange format files

.spz Protocol files
Once you find the files, copy them to the external storage device.
