Hi, I Just wanted to say hello. I bought a DS1072 here in the UK and recived it a few days ago after a 5 weeks waiting for delivery. The rigol is my second scope, some time ago I bought an Owon SDS7102 but it has been next to useless because of the SDS7102 “ground noise” issue. Making the choice to invest again this time in a Rigol was made much easier by all of the great information posted here by Marmad and all of you and Dave’s video review. What a great resource this has been, a big thankyou to you all for taking the time to revew and report on DS2000. I’m extremely pleased with the Rigol, what a fantastic bit of kit :-+ I’m interested to know how to reset option min counters (boy they seem to drop fast) if anyone would like to PM me but I’m happy to post more first if that makes folks more comfortable sharing this information. The DS2072 was supplied with Firmware 00.00.01.00.05 Hardware Version 1.0.1.0.0 FPGA SPU 03.01.02 WPU 00.06.00 CCU 12.29.00 MCU 00.05 Checksum. |

I have no idea which licence keys you might own, or which ones out in the wild are legitimate trials etc. so I've left that part to you. You'll need to add your licence keys into the config file. This other thread is discussing licences, they might know which ones are legit. https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/sniffing-the-rigol's-internal-i2c-bus/msg256481/#msg256481 P.M. me, and I'll send you the app. It's certainly rough & ready. |

I bought an Rigol DS2202here in germany yesterday and tested them with the Rigol Ultravision Utilities V2.03 unter Windows 8 x64 with usage of the USB link instead the Ethernet, where is use in normal circumstance. My UTD-4152c (2GS/s @150Mhz 2 Channel) will be reselled next and is replaced reasoned by the missing of serial analysis- and LXI feature. This was a cheap scope two years ago and did a satisfied job this time. I had replaced them because i got the DSA815-TG last year and would joint them with usage of LXI feature - the capabilities of a common, documented and nearly open communicaton and data transfer protocol make the job quite easier for me. Well, the Rigol DS2202 got a nice wide screen to show a signal and the resolution of the screen makes it more readable. The I2C, SPI analysis looks great, even that a license need to be payed until the trial time ended. Advanced Trigger option and the deeper memory seems to be a nice feature too, but i don't know if i need that actually. Well, this is just a key-based option that could be installed anytime later, if required. The released Hack's are nice to see, what's possible, but looks anyway unprofessional and you lost the warrenty of the device. My messuring equipment are references and there values must be reliable - no space for experiments. The license fee for the options are not so expensive like them from HP, TEK or R&S. I got an offer for about € 188.- for the lic of each option - not an unfair price for that.I had checked some signals like an eye-diagram and this looks great on the screen. The decode feature if SPI looks also great - especialy for faster signals. Cheaper logic analyzer like them from Saelogic can't decode, if the electrical signal envelope is wrong. The practical handling needs to be tested longer, so be patient. Greetzs |

After reviewing several semiconductor datasheet of the input stage, and see how similar this is to "previous versions" (DS1000). It is very possible that if it (DS2000) do not use digital filtering of the signal to set the bandwidth, then maybe we could get without much difficulty A BW of 300/400MHz by SPI commands to the LMH6518. Assuming that the differential amplifier with adjustable gain is a "complete" version of the LMH6518. Cheers :) |

The scope has not been calibrated for this. Maybe a 70Mhz scope was only calibrated for 70 Mhz so even 100 or 200Mhz measurements are not valid. Usually you need a scope for measuring ... at least I would like to get a valid measurement. Data from uncalibrated devices are often not very useful. |
