I'm having a right devil of a time. I bought the 1052E as my first scope, and naturally I want to screw the manufacturer out of as much money as is possible through the use of clever workarounds.

My scope came with the 00.04.01 SP7 firmware, and is HardVersion=58.

I downloaded MudMan's hacked firmware, loaded it onto an SD card with a USB SD Hub (none of my flash drives seemed to work for the upgrade), and the '52E recognizes that there is an upgrade on the card, so I upgraded it, and restarted the 'scope when it said to.

However, upon restart, it still says it's a DS1052E, and there doesn't seem to be any difference in functionality. Is there another step or something that I have missed?

With the cracked firmware you will get 1052E as model number, thats ok. Only with the "workaround" in the old FW, with the change of the serial number, the model number will change to 1102E.
A quick check to get the bandwidth; turn the horizontal timebase to minimum and check the value. If the minimum is 2nS your scope has 100MHz bandwidth, if it's only 5nS the crack didn't work and the scope has 50Mhz bandwidth.

Oh, okay. It does have the 2ns minimum, so I guess everything DID work. Giggity.

Thanks for the help.

I bought a new Rigol DS1052E last year with the following Software version: 00.04.01. (That's all it says).

Is it possible to hack this scope to 100MHz as well?

straycat · « **Reply #1654 on:** April 22, 2015, 04:03:12 pm »

The answer is yes,you should still be able to hack the scope with the 100mhz mod firmware. hope this helps.

LarsT · « **Reply #1655 on:** April 23, 2015, 11:07:04 am »

Nice! I will try it!

What worries me is that everyone seem to have different versions and different software/hardware etc.

LarsT · « **Reply #1656 on:** May 21, 2015, 09:05:30 am »

I tried the upgrade but it still displays "Rigol D1052E" during start up and version 00.04.01. However I now can "zoom in" to 2ns, where before I was limited to 5ns.

Is this success?

LarsT;
Yes you have succeeded.

mmatic......... All you need to do is download gizmo,s modded firmware. Put it on a usb stick,plug it in, it should say newer firmware found,then update. The scope will still show its a 1052e but you should be able to go down to 2ns=100mhz.Hope this helps.

Hi guys. For those of you how have changed the ds via the old way ,i.e usb, changing the model no and serial,. If you put the DS back to its 1052e and correct serial number, when you install the new 00.04.02.00.00 it changes the scope automatically to a ds1102e without modding the firmware.

PS.. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE 00.03 OR HIGHER FIRMWARE.BEFORE INSTALLING 00.04.02.00.00

MudMan · « **Reply #1664 on:** June 10, 2015, 05:56:47 pm »
