Hantek - Tekway - DSO hack - get 200MHz bw for free

[STS463]

The "Self Calibration" function does fail at "self calibration step (13/34)" with message "Self calibration failed, error x502".

Hi tinhead,

thank you very much for your kind reply.
The supplier of the scope has promised me to contakt TEKWAY regarding background information for "error x502". I will post the answer (if any) in this forum.

My best regards and a Happy New Year 2014

- The Save Wave button always saves to USB, regardless of the Media settings; is this a bug or normal?

is there a way to select SD as destination? if not, then it is not a bug, if yes - well, then it is bug.

I experimented a bit more with the save/recall menu; unfortunately some parts don't work at all, while others need some thinking to overcome illogical features. I managed to cause long freezes with some button sequences, and once it even rebooted.

Here are my findings:

Wave (F1) has a submenu, where you can select
- channel to be saved (CH1 or CH2)
- media (Flash, USB, SD)
- location (0-100 for Flash, 0-1000 for the other two)
  save/reload to/from Flash works
  save to SD says operation done, but recall fails
  USB works, but there are file names, so location has no meaning, although it can be set

Save Wave (F5) has no submenu, and saves a .gif and a .bmp on the USB right away (eg. pic_27_2.gif and pic_27_2.bmp in a directory called pic_27_2). Each new save creates a new directory; don't ask me where the names come from

The settings from F1 (Wave) do not affect this function as I originally expected, and this may even be logical if no network connectivity is default, so one would not want the picture files in any place other than the USB stick. Networking and saving to SD would be much nicer of course

I am interested in MSO5074F oscilloscopes. Does it with the USB interface?

of course it does, but when you have any question you might ask this dealer (he is the only who seems to have MSO5074F in stock now):

Great! Thanks for the link on amazon Tinhead.

So I picked up a DSO5072P over the last summer, put it through it's paces for a few days, and then did the 200MHz upgrade... Now the probe test output is reading as a 0.188V@1kHz square wave, and the self-calibration fails at step 2 with the error code 0xa00... Anything I can do to fix this, or is it hosed?

check the cables, probably the left one (supply for analong circuits) is not contacting properly.

I have now a 200mhz osciloscope!
Tinman, thanks a million times! Thanks to you I now have a 200MHz oscilloscope with minimum time 2ns!
With great trepidation I started DSO BW-Changer ...
I did everything, took a few seconds ...
I reboot the oscilloscope ...
And it worked!
My wife was watching I had told him that I'm just about to do... a wonderful thing, or a new oscilloscope, turned in a piece of shit (which I gave RON 1500)!
It worked, I am very pleased, thank you again!

[tinhead]

you welcome

Hello!

I did revice my Hantek DSO5102P yesterday, it's a 100mhz oscilloscope
It's running fw: 3.40

Is there any 200mhz hack for it?

I did read first post in this thread and did make backup of mtd blocks.
Now im connect to uart pins directly beside usb port on the backside.
i got console now,  and could see file dst 1102b i did raname it to dst1202b
is that all? =/




best regards

yes, that's all.

The backup tools posted here are not working on all new models,  so affected ppl have to make
backup manually or skip that step.

The hack itself, can be done via uart, virtual terminal or with the app posted here in thread.

Whatever model one have, the BW hack is always the same. The other things are only optional,
like logo, backup or hardware modifications.

Hi again, did try to make own disp file with image2lcd with info from readme file included, but after reboot it's still same as original
Did place disp file in /dso/app/

the boot logo is in hw0,hw1005 and hw1007 models (as described on first page) a simple raw picture.

In BM/BMV models and handhelds it is in the "disp" file, here you need the image2lcd.

On latest models the logo has been compiled into fram buffer driver, so you need gpl sources (for your model
there are two versions, dowload both to get all necessary files ....) and need to recompile that frame buffer (s3c-fb.c)
with your own logo (e.g. DSO5202P logo in DSO5000P\src\linux-3.2.35\drivers\video\hantek_logo\5202P.h)

http://www.hantek.com/download/Desktop_5000P.zip
http://www.hantek.com/Product/5000P/DSO5000P.zip

For other latest models the GPL sources has been not updated, so one have to take the "P" model soueces (as they as well for
S3C2416 SoC and Linux 3.2.35) and compile frame buffer. In one of these "P" models GPL source are logos are included^^.

Hi,

I'm new here and have a Hantek DSO1102BV (hw version: 0x555583e8, SN: DSO0501xxx, PCB marking: DSO1000H v.1.00.1).

I haven't changed anything yet, except for a fw upgrade from 2.01.1 (120701) to 2.01.1 (130129).

After having read through the forum, I have several questions:

- I'm a bit puzzled by the Wave and Save Wave submenus under SAVE/RECALL: setting Media to USB or Flash, Save and Recall work as expected, but Recall fails when Media is set to SD even though Save succeeds according to the message. The SD card status is "built in"; is the "EEPROM licensing hack" still needed if I want to use the SD card for saving waveforms?

- The Save Wave button always saves to USB, regardless of the Media settings; is this a bug or normal?

- The UART header is marked differently on two pictures (RX and TX are swapped,
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/hantek-tekway-dso-hack-get-200mhz-bw-for-free/?action=dlattach;attach=50483 vs.
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/hantek-tekway-dso-hack-get-200mhz-bw-for-free/?action=dlattach;attach=19887 ). Ok, one is the pinout of the DSO itself, and the other of the module to be connected, but which is which?

- Beside the UART header, there is a four hole connector marked @WLAN. What module can be used there?

Thanks for all the useful info already here, and any answers to come, cheers

Hello! I found Hantek has a update firmware can Recall when Media is set to SD.

Hello! I found Hantek has a update firmware can Recall when Media is set to SD.

thanks for the information!.

Btw, it looks like that firmware update is upgrading Linux kernel, device drivers and rcS as well.
So for those who only updating fw manually - don't miss these things, or you handheld will not boot up anymore!

[rosasharn]

Thanks for reminding me, tinhead. 

[limpid]

anyone know, 5072P can be cracked?

[tinhead]

anyone know, 5072P can be cracked?

no, there is no crack and no need for a crack .. nor keygen .. but you can hack the bandwidth, that for sure ^^

[limpid]

thanks.

hello, anyone have a 2Gsa/s sample rate, 60Mhz DSO7000 series?this series looks just launch.

for sure not, it has been launched but not yet available. All you can buy is DSO5074F(G)  and the DSO4000 models.

[kallsop]

Glad I found this thread

Looking to buy a new Hantek DSO5062B, definitely need the extra memory over the DSO5072P. Presumably this new DSO will have a serial >15000. So, it will be bandwidth hackable but won't be able to make a backup? I don't care too much about the backup, just want to know what I am getting in to. I have a USB-rs232 adapter if needed.

Hmmm: just discovered that the Rigol DS1052E is the same street price, both are $330, hackable to 100MHz. Decisions, decisions.

[limpid]

Hi Thinhead, do you have any hack video for DSO5062B?

[tinhead]

video ? no, i don't speak any human language and video without voice is useless. But for what you need video? The hack is so simple ...

[gafbich]

help, replace the file on your DST1102B dso.exe (I do not remember how) now boot up logo on UART is not available (nor any greeting Putty). What should I do!
