Slightly off topic. TEquipment has 2 MSO5074 in stock. It was 3 before I bought one
wtf? I bought one and got my delivery bumped back and forth
wtf? I bought one and got my delivery bumped back and forthYeah my confirmation e-mail indicates a shipping date of the 15th. I suspect shenanigans
anyone tried logging in with firmware version 00.01.01.02.04? Build: 2018-11-09 19:49:21
i ordered the mso5074 after reading about the "hack" on hackaday. received it an hour ago, but can't log in over the lan interface & ssh...
Chipset and front end chip in MSO7000 and MSO5000 is identical and capable of same bandwidth (frontend chipset is capable of few GHz actually). It's just that your signal from input BNC cannot get to it without being destroyed.
For a scope of this class it is more important that it has good 300 MHz with good signal integrity(which is a miracle itself), that hacking it to 1GHz with distorted signal. You get worse scope actually, and much more noise...

By looking at these FW strings (in the current models):
600MHz to 1GHz Bandwidth Upgrade Option
600MHz to 2GHz Bandwidth Upgrade Option
1GHz to 2GHz Bandwidth Upgrade Option
I would imagine that ds8000 (or ds9000) could be available in 600MHz or 1GHz base, with options to upgrade to 2GHz.
Let's hope that with another PCB as you say.
No need for speculation. 8000 is up to 2GHz model.
9000 is yet to be released up to 4GHz model.
Spoke with Rigol on Electronica. 8000 was there, looks pretty much like black 7000....
As Dave Jones pointed out already in his review: The entry level DS1054Z series seems to have a better display than the MSO5000 series. How come? Did you change display vendor?
One is a touch screen. Matte touch screens show all the fingerprints much more.

There where no DS/MSO8000 on the Electronica fair? IIRC the RSA5000 was the only black instrument at the Rigol stand apart from the MSO5000.

Thought maybe the update is only via online connection to the scope avaible and take it to home, connect LAN...
No, no firmare avaible.
This resistor had been left off the circuit board.
The corrupted data out of the MSO5074 was found to be caused by varying widths of the Low going data bits in the serial data stream.
At 115200 bits/sec, the nominal bit width is 8.68us. Some of the Low going bits from the UART interface were down to 3us width.
The over all packet timing was correct, just the width of the low going bits varied.
So depending on when the receiving equipment clocks the data in, it may see either a "0" or "1"
This was solved by feeding the data through an external Pulse stretching circuit to set the minimum bit width correctly.
The second issue of no response to commands was tracked down to an open circuit on the PCB trace from the UART interface connection point.
The Data IN to the MSO5074 goes via a series resistor. This resistor had been left off the circuit board.
Hm ?
I thought, new updates will be present on the regular rigol sites…..
You got a new update ? What does the "changes" say ?

Just a few seconds before, I download the file, transfer it to a usb stick, plug it in the rigol…..
Stick will be recognized but "local upgrade" isn´t avaible…
Martin
Yes, this works and upgrading will be done very quick.
But I can´t see any remarkable changes except the version number.
Maybe the update was only for changing the "root" password
