Any clue about if they scheduled for releasing firmware update?
Any clue about if they scheduled for releasing firmware update?Rich was saying this month, and this was a fairly early reported issue, and acknowledged., so hopefully that will be fixed.
I had no issues connecting under Win7 ( using Firefox)

Thanks. I think the next step is to attach the scope to my wireless router and see if I can connect that way instead of direct scope to computer cabling.
My usual back asswards approach to Windows networking issues is to try different things until one works and then work back from that. I wish I had enough networking skills to approach it more systematically..
If you hook it up directly to the PC, it will not get a DHCP address. Connecting it to your router should fix that problem.
You can hook it up directly to the computer but you'll have to assign it an address, gateway, and subnet mask manually. Much easier to attach it to your LAN's existing DHCP server like any other PC.

OK thanks. That sort of makes sense. In hindsight I should have tried that already ( I will when I get home). But why does it work fine when directly connnected to my Mac laptop? Doesn't a direct Windows box connection support DHCP? It does appear to get assigned an IP address when directly connected to the Windows box (so I assumed DHCP was functioning). Also it would be nice if the manual would spell that out..
Hi mtdoc, Congrats on the new scope! If you have the serial decoding (and the digital channels?) let us know how things compare to whatever you had (serial decoding?) on the DS2072. Thx, EF
I don't know if anybody mentioned that the probes are made by Texas:

Any comments on the probes?

Only that they are not actually in Texas, see below (I'm in Texas).
Did Dave give up on a in depth review of this scope?
There's an updated datasheet for the RTB out now, I compared it to the last one and there were 2 changes...
Added to compliance section:
"in line with EN 55011 class A, operation in
residential, commercial and business
areas or in small-size companies is not
covered; therefore the instrument may not
be operated in residential, commercial and
business areas or in small-size companies
unless additional measures are taken to
ensure that EN 55011 class B is complied
with."
(...so I guess that means it has the potential to cause interference in excess of that spec.)
UART decode spec changed: max bitrate officially reduced to 3 Mbps.
