DG4000 - a firmware investigation
Rigol-Friend:
A hint for the german speaking users: Since some weeks Rigol offers the user manual now in german language also. :-)

If you're interested in the hardware capabilities of the DG4xxx series above their rated frequency response check out this thread:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/250-mhz-out-of-a-rigol-dg4102-a-100-mhz-waveform-generator/
I took a bunch of measurements using an Arb waveform which consists of 10 cycles of a sine wave, which quite clearly show the true response of the hardware and the extent to which high frequency roll-off is being corrected for by software calibration. The plots were all taken using a 500 MHz Tektronix scope, so they should be pretty flat across the range of interest.

First: Thank you very much cybernet for all the fine work you have done for us. I'm sure we all appreciate it so much!
You certainly have made me very happy with my souped up Rigol equipment.
Question for the forum about 'DG4000 cengen':
If you use the 'cengen' to go from 'DG4062' to 'DG4202', (with, or without changing the S/N) can you then later go back to 'DG4062' (original) using 'cengen' if you find a bug, flaw, or worst yet, have to send your unit back for warranty repair?
BTW I prefer leaving the S/N as is. Could this cause any potential future issues?
I would like to try this myself, but I'm not a Linux user and I have not been able to figure out how to generate the key as of yet. Cybernet's instructions look clear if you have some basic knowledge of the Linux OS, but I don't, and that's my problem! If there were some step-by-stbep instructions available, I would jump on it. In the mean time I'll continue to try to figure it out.
cybernet:
try it and let us know ;)

I tried to go back from DG4202 to DG4102, no problem. I kept the SN, only changed the model.
