hahaha .. i was excited when i was writing .. i used a dpo7104 as a floppy writer, 4 floppy disks are ready but the scope is not accepting them or for some reason is not reading them as in the pictures |

You can try depress and hold select key or b-trig when you turn on the scope. With select key you can access to devel menu |
| sicco:
If new diskettes and a new floppy disk drive do not solve the issue, and/or, if upgrading the 1.44" disk drive to a USB drive adapter does not solve it, then, you might try the BDM adapter discussed extensively in this forum thread. That allows for a complete erase of the flash rom chips, and then a reprogramming of them. That will get your scope running again. The firmware upgrade via diskettes is only modifying the application program, but keeps the VxWorks bootloader rom section as-is. The BDM backdoor adapter allows for a full wipe and re-imaging of the TDS3000 motherboard flash rom. |
