Anyone already tested the beta firmware?
I mean i would have no hesitation if there are some bugs and i can downgrade to a official firmware again.
But if the beta firmware would be broken completely, this would be kind of bad...
LaurentR:
(I don't have a EL30000 - cross-shopped a couple of years ago but was turned off by the lack of Wh or Ah counting and lack of battery test features in general).

There is a new firmware on the Keysight website: 1.2.9-1.0.6-17-114
https://www.keysight.com/us/en/lib/software-detail/computer-software/el30000-series-bench-electronic-loads-firmware.pv.html

Release notes say: "Added new battery test features."

There is no new Instruction Manual that may describe these. Anyone with an EL30000 that would know what these are?

I just went ahead and installed the firmware update on my EL34143A.  The "Mode" menu now has a new option called "Battery Test."  I've attached a screenshot of what's displayed when you select it.

Thank you!

Too bad it's a completely separate mode, but at least it should do the job for batteries now.
niner_007:
any ideas how that works with models that have 2 inputs? can it work in parallel mode?
