Thank you,hubert.
My DHO804 is DHO924 now.
Two extra drams are only for LA.It can be unpopulate if doesn't use the LA .
The bandwidth is increased successfully.it has 800ps rise time now.
And the memory depth is 50M now.

Hi Azusa,Could you share "DHO800_DHO900_Update.GEL" of your device,It's firmware under /rigol .I have some problem while try to hacking DHO804 to 924 using Hubert's vendor.bin,after replacement it was successfully recognized as DHO924,bandwith increased.But there was Y axis drifting(±(5-10)mv) can not be eliminate by SelfCal.the hardware seems to be identical,the only difference was firmware version,mine is 00.01.00(2023/7/21) which diffeent from yours(00.01.14 2023/07/06),i want to downgrade to your version having a try,Thanks.

Dear nervdg, Have you already loaded the .GEL file into DHO804? and is it working properly？

[boyie]

There was still Y axis drifting(±(5-10)mv) can not be eliminate by SelfCal 。
Mine is dho804.

DHO800_DHO900_Update.GEL

I think the difference between the firmware versions released on July 14th and July 21st should be the difference in the Sparrow.APK. So I hope you can execute adb pull /data/app/com.rigol.scope-1/base.apk and send me the obtained apk to try to downgrade.

DHO800_DHO900_Update.GEL

Thanks.I though gel file under /rigol was firmware backup of current runinng version.but i was wrong ,it was complied at 04/15/2023 which looks like an early stage firmware ,the default bandwidth was 200mhz,and lots of options listed in the 'Options' field,looks the same as HDO series,but all function was incomplete or heavily bugged.It would be nine if you could pull /rigol by use adb pull -a /rigol which was exactraed files of current firmware, i want to compare FPGA bitfile and main scope program (sparrow.apk),Thanks again!

Executing /rigol/build_gel.sh can generate a backup of the current running version of firmware!

adb shell
cd /rigol
rm DHO800_DHO900_Update.GEL
sh build_gel.sh

after the execution is completed, file DHO800_DHO900_Update.GEL is the firmware of the current running version.

Here is the /rigol from my device,and could you share your early firmware?

thanks your upload. when i replace my rigol folder with your's dump folder. my scope can't receive any signal. Then I recopy the backup file to /rigol it works. But! I found my ch1 voltage shift problem is solved!~. I don't known why, but others three channels still have the shift problem.

Then i found replace the calibration file at /rigol/data/*.hex, the scope will not works. use original file, everything's works well and ch1 doesn't have any voltage shift problem.

Here is one earliest version i have found which build on 04/15/2023.
The firmware  which you send to me was not current version 00.01.14 but 00.01.06 (06/08/2023),in fact I think the current version scpoe program APK coule only be dump from android by adb pull /data/app/com.rigol.scope-1/base.apk,and the fpga bitfile could need to access the hardware(spi flash beside fpga chip) which i think it's impossible cuz you warranty will be void.Could I trouble you to dump the apk again? Thanks a lot!

Hi,

The Rigol DHO800 and DHO900 datasheets are now available in English.

https://int.rigol.com/Images/DHO800_DataSheet_EN_tcm7-5746.pdf
https://int.rigol.com/Images/DHO900_DataSheet_EN_tcm7-5747.pdf

You can compare with the Siglent sds-1104XE.

https://www.siglent.fr/index.php?controller=attachment&id_attachment=22

The lowest price for a 4-channel dho-800 (dho-804) is 389 USD and the dho-900 (dho-914) is 589 USD.

The DHO-800 starts at 500µV/div and the DH0-900 at 200µV/div, but it seems to be a digital zoom for the most sensitive gauges and that the "true 12bit ADC" starts at 1mV/div.

The DHO-800 has a maximum memory depth of 25MPts (for 1 channel), 10MPts (for 2 channels) and only 1MPts (for 3 and 4 channels).
DHO-900 has 50MPts, 25MPts and 10MPts.

The LA is for the DHO-900 only, and its device is a PLA2216 (the same as for the MDO5000) at around 350-400 USD. 

Have a nice day !

Thank you.
Did you find a price list (USD, EUR)?
How much are the 2-channel DHO800?

[Fungus]

The lowest price for a 4-channel dho-800 (dho-804) is 389 USD and the dho-900 (dho-914) is 589 USD.

Where is that? In China?

[Fungus]

The DHO-800 has a maximum memory depth of 25MPts (for 1 channel), 10MPts (for 2 channels) and only 1MPts (for 3 and 4 channels).
DHO-900 has 50MPts, 25MPts and 10MPts.

Hopefully that's hackable :-)

I'm not sure I'd want 200MHz bandwidth with 1.25 GSa/s sample rate but a 125MHz DHO800 with 50MPts of memory sounds like a very good thing.

Thank you.
$329 is a bit more than the 1999 yuan originally mentioned (would be $275 at current exchange rate).

$329 is a bit more than the 1999 yuan originally mentioned (would be $275 at current exchange rate).

This is still a super cheap price for what you'll probably(no real test yet and here) get.

[Pinkus]

The DOH800 could be a nice secondary oscilloscope for a temporary workstation (can also be connected to the monitor, so the small 7" display would be tolerable). And it can also be operated with a battery for off-site measurements.

I assume so too.
But $299 for the cheapest model would not have been bad in terms of sales psychology.
The 100Mhz Hantek DSO2C10 is still half the price.
I know that you can't compare the two brands in terms of quality, but Rigol could challenge Hantek a bit more in the entry-level segment... 

[Pinkus]

Yeah - but the Rigol is more compact and hopefully hackable 
but we will see, how the price will be in Europe.

[Martin72]

In my experience, the dollar prices are the same as the euro prices, plus VAT.
The $329 would then become approx. 391€ incl. 19% VAT.
If this remains the case and the DHO 814 is offered for just under 390€, the days of the DS1000Z would be numbered.

The DHO 814 costs $459 according to the list above.
Why do you think it will be available for under 390€?

[Martin72]

Argh, my fault...Didn´t saw it is for the 2-ch/70Mhz version.
But even then it would be less than the DS1104Z(from a hacking view of point).

[Fungus]

If the DHO 814 is offered for under 390€, the days of the DS1000Z would be numbered.

Yep.

Also all the Siglents in that price range.
