My PC is running Windows 8.1 x64 and I tried multiple USB controllers/ports.  ultra-sigma could see the scope in every case.

Hey Noircogi,

Thanks for the feedback.

Off the top of my head, I can think of 3 possible reasons:

* You are using an old version of the NI VISA runtime (It has to be >=v5.4)
* The serial number of your DSO does not start with "DS2D" (in which case it gets filtered out in the discovery process)
* There is a bug in the SW which makes it incompatible with your config.
What you can do:

* Check if there is an error log (ErrorLog.txt) in "[Installation folder]\Temp\" and if there is, please send it to me.
* If you used the variant with the built-in installer, there should be a log (NiVisa.log) generated by the NI VISA installer in "[Installation folder]\Installers\". It might be a good idea to take a look at it. If it says there was a problem during installation, you should try reinstalling the VISA 5.4 drivers manually.

Portable version mirrored here, as usual: http://www.gotroot.ca/rigol/

Happy to host the full version, but these stupid download sites make me download it at home then upload it again, and after 100MB or so I gave up. If anyone wants me to bother, just ask.

They are stupid and I have no idea why people use them.  I inherently distrust software served from these places.  Legit software authors should know better.

* Amazon S3 (< $0.10/month for the traffic we'll create for a file this size.)
* Dropbox
* OneDrive
* Google Drive
* etc...

Rutger:
I am thinking about getting a Rigol DS1074z, will this utility work for the DS1000Z series scopes?

Thanks for writing the Utility!

Rigby:
No, but getting license keys for the DS1074Z is as easy as filling out a form.

This utility was generated because for this particular scope (the DS2000A series) it isn't so easy.  This utility automates a bit of that into a wizard.
