It's all listed in the third post of this thread (down near the bottom).
If the DSO came from back inventory, I'm guessing you'll have FW 01.00.02 or 01.00.05.

I can't get that to work. I am in the trigger menu w/Edge selected and I'm hitting 7/6/7/Utility quickly (tried to do it all within 1/2 second - also tried to do it slower and more deliberately), and I have key beep turned on, so I know I am getting the key presses. It beeps on 7/6/7 and on Utility it brings up the Utility menu.
Anything else that needs to be set - like channels off, in single/run/stop or something?

this confused me. are you using the buttons on the right side of the screen ? - they are what worked for me

Yep, the gray/blue buttons (1 through 7, 1 being the top one just below the menu key, the 7 being the bottom just above the up arrow key).
I had the scope on from earlier, so I pressed the "trigger" menu and it was set to edge already. So with the trigger menu still open, I pressed 7/6/7/Utility quickly. The 7/6/7 beeps on each press, and when I hit utility that menu just popped up. I tried different speeds, all the way to "as fast as I bet anyone could do it" and nothing.
Is it possible I have a later firmware and this keypress method to get the full version info has been removed?

Don't use key beep - it's possible that might cause it NOT to function. It doesn't have to be that fast - just quickly, with very little pause between keys. I never had any trouble with it once I realized that you just couldn't pause for long between key presses.

Not unless you have a version of the FW no one else has - or has seen. But why would they remove it? It just brings up a test mode menu. Plus you can get the full FW version easily using SCPI commands as well.

Hi everyone
I am a new member from Canada but have been following it for quite some time. I ordered a DS2072 back on May 7 from Tequipment and it finally arrived a few days ago on June 25. They changed the expected delivery date about 4 times before they actually marked it as shipped. It comes with all trial options installed with approx. 2100 minutes to go. It also came with firmware version 00.00.01.00.05 I have also been following the hacking rigol i2c thread and it is looking very interesting. :-+

If you still can't get the button method to work, install NI VISA runtime (you need it for RUU anyway) and Rigol Ultra Sigma software.
Connect DSO via USB; boot the DSO; start Ultra Sigma; open SCPI Control Panel; type (or copy and paste) the following:
:SYSTem:SETup?
You will see the full FW version number in the top line of the return data.
