Not working on the 1074z, I use USB and get "DSO not responding to query... closing connection."
Why don't you write some kind of log file?

You're talking about the version (a02) I just uploaded 5 minutes before you posted your message?

Exactly 3.00(a02)
It seems to connect at first, at least it doesn't find the scope when usb is not plugged in.

Does the 'Connect' button turn yellow? Do you see any DSO info appear on the screen before it loses connection (e.g. time base, sample rate, sample size, waveforms)?
EDIT: Ok, it appears it won't be quite so simple to have the DS1000Z work with the same commands as the DS2000/4000/6000 do. I'll add a log file writer to the next alpha to track down offending commands.

It gets brighter

After I close the window telling me the scope is disconnected I get some Info
timebase is correct
number of point is 0 (should be 300)
delays is correct
trigger level is correct
gain settings are there for all four channels
but no waveforms

Thanks, this is helpful. It seems now the problem might be the actual waveform data reading - which, as I'm starting to remember, uses a slightly different protocol on the DS1000Z from the DS2000/4000/6000. I will have to check the DS1000Z prog. manual again to refresh.
I'm still hoping to hear some news from a DS4000 owner that it's working for them - since, unlike the DS1000Z, the commands are identical between that and the DS2000.

I just noticed another missing/wrong parameter from your screen cap - the acquisition type is not displayed. All of the screen parameters (except for the vertical trigger markers and the waveforms) are retrieved and drawn as a single group. All of those are correct except for the memory depth (which I think I've sorted out) and acquisition type. Do you remember what type you had set? Normal, Average, Peak, or Hi-Res?
I'm unfortunately not DS4000 user, just yet another DS1000z :/
However I can confirm previous posts and that the acq. type is missing. I tried cycle through (normal, peak, average and high res), no change.
I can confirm Chrisalats reports. I am getting some info, as well as the error messages, but no waveform.
I am getting sample rate, timebase, v/div, trigger info, as well as vertical/horizontal position. Memory depth is always 0 for me. No information about delayed timebase is displayed either.

Hmm... I wonder if the DS1000Z is responding to the :ACQ:TYPE? command as it is supposed to (based on info from the Prog. Manual). There are many mistakes in Rigol's implementations and documentations.
Some DS1Z owner with Ultra Sigma installed should start it, then try entering :ACQ:TYPE? and see how the DSO responds. The query
should return NORM, AVER, PEAK or HRES.
Also, someone needs to test what the DS1Z returns when you have memory depth set to AUTO and you send it the command :ACQ:MDEP? According to the DS1000Z & DS2000 Prog. Manuals, they will return the word 'AUTO'. But the DS2000 actually returns the real memory size - so does the DS1000Z do that too or does it actually return 'AUTO'?
This is the response I get:
-> :ACQ:TYPE?
<- (Return Count:5)
NORM
The other modes give: PEAK, AVER, HRES
-> :ACQ:MDEP?
<- (Return Count:5)
AUTO
This is the response I get:
-> :ACQ:TYPE?
<- (Return Count:5)
NORM
The other modes give: PEAK, AVER, HRES
Thanks! Can you also please test the return value for AUTO memory depth (as mentioned in my post above)?
Sorry I forgot to paste it in, modified the previous post to correct it.
I gave it a try as well
-> :ACQ:TYPE?
<- (Return Count:5)
HRES
-> :ACQ:MDEP?
<- (Return Count:6)
12000
Sorry I forgot to paste it in, modified the previous post to correct it.
Great! Thanks a bunch... now I can make the changes to fix the zero memory depth - although the missing acquisition type is still perplexing since the commands/returns are the same as the DS2000.
Well, in any case, the next alpha release will include a log file so that problems can be traced more quickly. I'll have it up in the next day or so.
No no, I'm the one to thank you!
I love RUU and appreciate your work a lot
Hello, as a proud owner of a DS1104Zs, I get similar results as Chrisalat in USB mode:
1. After clicking "Connect", the button turns yellow while a messagebox "DSO not responding" appears (cf. attached picture)
2. Then, no waveforms are displayed, but some infos are correct:

Thank you Marmad for the good work!
Ok,
new interim version of RUU alpha for DS1000Z owners (RUU 3.00.a03)I fixed the AUTO memory response, tweaked a couple waveform reading routines - and I've added a log file to try to discover where the communication breakdown between RUU and the DS1000Z is happening. Will a DS1Z owner please run this version, try to connect - and then post the resultant log file (created in the \data sub-directory) here? Thanks!
BTW, this version creates a continuous log file which grows ever larger while you remain connected with the DSO - so if my tweaks have managed to fix the connection problem with DS1000Zs, it would be better not to continue testing for too long with this version - but wait for the next alpha for more in-depth trials.
I'm still waiting to hear from a DS4000 owner as to whether the software displays all 4 channels correctly for them.
Works for me now. Rise time seems to be off.
Greetings
If I should test something marmad, just tell me via pm.

Great to hear! But that's not the rise time you see at the bottom right: the top right and bottom right combined give you extended trigger info (more info than the Rigol shows on it's screen). In this case, it's displaying that you have an Edge trigger set to CH1 input at 1.5V; triggering on the Rise(ing) edge with DC coupling and a holdoff of 16ns.
But what's odd is the speed of the WPS you're getting - which is 5 (quite slow for a single channel). Are you using USB or TCP/IP?
BTW, if you're going to make a screen cap at 1920 x 1080, better to click the 2x checkbox button before you do (to increase the DSO screen size).

Cool feature!
The Rigol is connected vip TCP/IP and USB. Where can I see which mode RUU uses? Added 2 new logs, one for ethernet, the other for usb. usb is 5 wps, ethernet 1 wps.
Added screenshot + logfile, etc for 4 channels

Thanks. What Windows version are you currently running - and what is your processor type and speed?
It appears that the DS1000Z's communication speeds are considerably slower than the DS2000 or DS4000 (which could make sense, given the speed of the UI). RUU tries to get as many waveforms per second as the DSO will deliver - but it's limited by both the communication link and whether the DSO is too busy doing other things to send data.
Perhaps another DS1000Z owner could post their speeds to see if those are typical for the DSO?

Well this beta version is working, here a screen shot, of RUU and the real screen,
running windows 7, 32 bit on a 1.6 Ghz dual core
This is via ethernet.
Hi Wim13,
please post your Logfile for Marmad (RUU Folder -> Data -> Logfile.txt). I can see that you have 1 wps. Is this ethernet oder usb connection?
Greetings
