Title: detent encoders from rigol DS1045Z skip every second time
Post by: andz on February 28, 2019, 10:29:44 pm
I recently bought a new oscilloscope from rigol specifically DS1054Z. Everything is working fine expect detent rotary encoders (for setting scale for vertical and horizontal axes) which skips every second time. I have to do two "clicks" in the same direction to move once. Or if I am "clicking" back and forth nothing happens. Do you have experience with something like that? Thanks for yours answers.

Check out the latest firmware that has been released two days ago. From the release notes it incorporates an encoder fix.
