Rigol's FW update request page, http://beyondmeasure.rigoltech.com/acton/form/1579/0012:d-0001/1/index.htm?id=0012, says that rev 00.01.11 is available for the DP832.   Has anyone received 1.11 (or 1.10) as an update from Rigol?    I asked for an update saying I was currently at 1.09 and they sent me 1.09  :(

Thanks for the info!  It would be nice to get these firmwares: 01.10 and 01.11 for evaluation and see what has been changed/fixed.  I put in a request for 01.10 a couple of weeks ago (before 01.11 mentioned publicly) but did not get a reply.

I suspect that Rigol's FW request form is only processed by a script - if you want any response at all, you have to  enter the data EXACTLY as they specify it.   For example, the text box at the bottom of the form should be filled with a single line such as:
   "DG832, DP8C1611234, 00.01.09"
Don't put anything else in that text box or Rigol's script will toss the whole request into the bit bucket.

I don't think this is the case.  I've generally specified all the required items, often not in the exact format requested, yet I've received email responses from actual people with firmware updates...  Unfortunately not the last time, however...

Today, I have just busy with my DP832-on version 00.01.11.00.00 (bootloader 01.09 ) turned up, but not a single key from Riglol 1.03d fit. What am I doing wrong? |O

Yes, I specified the requested fields on seperate lines and left a little note to ensure I got 1.11 and not 1.09 as some people seem to be getting.

I got it today. I think the confusion is that all the documentation and bootloader are for 1.09 while the firmware is 1.11

Did you have all the options installed on 1.09 and then upgraded to 1.11 and lost them all? or did you only try putting the keys into 1.11?

I think I will hold off my upgrade for now :(

@Macbeth: Could you please upload the 01.11 firmware to a filehost (e.g. wikisend.com) for others?  I would like to try it out, check against the bug list, and update the post. 

Thanks!

There doesn't seem to be much information floating around this thread regarding changes in the recent DP800-firmwares. As Rigol unfortunately quite often doesn't seem to provide release notes with firmware updates, maybe some excerpts from the most recent v1.11 release notes will help others to decide, whether to upgrade or not:

Version:00.01.11.00.00   Date:2014-7-8
  • Add the traditional language menu.
  • Expand the point of recorder to 614400.
  • The display mode will not be changed by setting preset.

Version:00.01.10.00.03   Date:2014-5-09
  • Fixed the bug of the display of high resolution option.
  • Add internal ovp/ocp function.

Version:00.01.09.00.01   Date:2014-01-16
  • The version supports multi-country language menu.
  • Optimize the trigger function.
  • Add the classic display interface to DP831A and DP832A, the interface just like  the GUI of DP832. You can switch the display mode by “display” key in front panel.
  • Add new SCPI command which is compatible with DP1000.
  • Adjust the position of “ADC Cal” menu.
  • It will prompt the warn message while the setting of voltage is bigger than 42V.
  • Change the LAN library.
  • Fix the bug about manual calibration.
  • Modify the format of upgrade file, it requests to upgrade the bootloader simultaneously, otherwise, it will not boot.

Version:00.01.08.00.02   Date:2013-11-06
  • This version has enhanced the SCPI command to compliant Agilent’s power supply and Rigol’s DP1000.
  • This version has  improved the algorithm of ADC offset calibration-self.
  • This version has improved the method of using calibration factor.
  • This version has fixed the bug that can result in losing MAC address when upgrade from old version.
  • This version supports internal otp function, this function will work when user turn off the OTP function.

Version:00.01.06.00.00   Date:2013-07-24
  • Add the function: ADC offset self-calibrate.

We're using DP832A-models so I can't tell anything about working/non-working codes in v1.11.

These are the dropbox links Rigol supplied me with:

Bootloader 1.09: https://www.dropbox.com/s/y2teclo95ebqvgo/DP800%28Software%29Update%28Bootloader%29.rar?dl=0
Firmware 1.11: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k3ydhnssk8opp24/DP800%28Software%29Update%28Normal%29.rar?dl=0

Well!
I got DP832 delivered several months ago with version 01.09.
At that time, key generator was in version 1.3.c and spent my keys, which were meaningless with 01.09.
Sure, I've tried this first, :phew: and then read in the forum what it is.
However, yesterday saw -o my God- for 01.09 there is an extra field. :clap:
Ready to try! And what? `Instalation fails`. The same display. :scared:
Got from Rigol up-date and recorded immediately.
Key again to try - and again `fails instalation`. Crap. :wtf:

A big thank you thn788! I will add a link to the info you provided from the first post!

Thanks. On 1.09, tried updating firmware first (as their previous guide instructs) but gets stuck on "19.2".
Trying bootloader -> firmware worked.

yes. but choose the right webside... otherwise your request might be issued in China... I started at www.rigol.eu and for me it worked also relativly fast.

Hi,

    BTW, does anyone already tried this new FW on a DP832 ? If so, does the keys remain ?


Cheers.

Just I upgraded the fw from 1.08 to 1.11 with success (and bootloader from 1.08 to 1.09) to my 832.

From the fw 1.06 I had enter the options (High Resolution, Analyzer, Monitor e.t.c) and there isn't need any more new key for this upgrade to 1.11

Thanks for all to help.

Just to confirm that 1.11 keeps activated options. I didn't have to upgrade the bootloader since it was 1.09 already (as shipped).

Cheers.

Great, I updated my bootloader from 1.06 to 1.09 and my firmware from 1.09 to 1.11 and I still have all my Riglol options  :-DD

Before...


After... (Bootloader first, Firmware second)


Options... all still there! :)
