Title: HP1670E Logic Analyzer Dead after Firmware Update
Post by: krucker on August 16, 2024, 05:02:52 pm
Hello
Recently I've bought a nice HP1670E Logic Analyzer at ebay and I've found a newer Firmware (V3.02) for this equipment. From Firmware Revision V2.3 I've done an upgrade to V3.02 using the Diskettes. The upgrade flash procedure was successful. After power up again the analyzer remains in the configuration menu. No analysis are possible. Unfortunately I haven't diskettes for the previous Version for moving back.
May someone give Me a hint for solving the problem or a link for firmware Version 2.3?
Many thanks
Gerhard Krucker

Could you post a picture of the configuration menu you're stuck in?

Hello aeg
Many thanks for your assistance. I think I've done a bullshit. The Firmware I've updated isn't for this device (is for HP1670G) and not for a HP16070E. I thought the software with branding on the diskette with 1670/71/72/73G is compatible with my device. I think I need a matching firmware disk or floppy disk image for exactly this device. Maybe someone can help me and send a link or image file to Me.

A02.02 software for the 1670E is available from keysight. :-+

The keysight URL changes frequently, so I am attaching the download for future reference. It is the same one.

The .exe's cannot be attached due to file size limitations. :palm:
