Many Thanks for the quick reply. I may still get one on loan but will discuss with the sales engineer regards known issues. I have just been looking at the BK 8601 and downloaded the software to take a peek. Thanks |

Any update from anyone regarding this DC load? Has the issues been fixed? |

I was sent this firmware by Keysight a while back, and unfortunately have not had any time to test it. You can grab it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IkAMjMfkPTkOfbA56MVlp3Nq419CQ1iz/view?usp=sharing I've also verified the MD5 checksum provided by Keysight --- Code: ---[11:36] M1MaxMacBookPro.local:keysight_EL3000_beta_khew_13MAY2022 | md5 Jati750B_9.2.7_1.0.6_17_114_dfd9d5d1396b24671c2adaa64d85875e.dfu MD5 (Jati750B_9.2.7_1.0.6_17_114_dfd9d5d1396b24671c2adaa64d85875e.dfu) = dfd9d5d1396b24671c2adaa64d85875e --- End code --- Instructions sent from Keysight: Please find the beta file and checksum attached.

As I just got one of these electronic loads myself, I'm curious what the current state of the firmware is... My unit shipped with the following version: 1.2.5-1.0.6-17-114 The website shows this as the latest version, with a release date of 2022-01-04. (the previous release is 1.2.3-1.0.6-17-114, listed with a release date of 2021-03-16) The beta image file shared by the previous post shows a first number that is so far ahead of what I see officially, that I can't help but assume its special numbering for beta releases. So I'm not sure if its actually older or newer than what I have. So in any case, I guess I'm just wondering whether a new release is around the corner, and what the current state of things is past what's been discussed so far. |

I've just pinged the Keysight team on your behalf. Unfortunately I didn't have time to test the beta, although I've used the electronic load in a basic manner. |
