REVIEW - Rigol DS2072 - First Impressions of the DS2000 series from Rigol
Hydrawerk:
OK, I should have read the manual...
tigerwillow1:
My Wave Intensity always goes to 50% no matter what I attempt to set it to. Is this the same issue as in the previous few posts? Brightness adjusts the grid intensity and works ok.

Pushing down on the intensity adjustment knob sets the intensity to 50% (it's a shortcut).
Don't push it down after adjusting the intensity. Just stop turning the knob and the intensity will lock to your setting after a second or so.

OK, I didn't know that. I did read the "waveform intensity" part of the book. So now, the intensity setting stays where I set it, but it doesn't change the brightness of the waveform. Am I interpreting what the "waveform" is? I think it's the yellow and blue channel 1/channel 2 traces. I upgraded to 00.02.01.00.03 this morning. I "think" the intensity used to work ok, but my memory is not to be trusted, either.

Yes, the waveform intensity control is the brightness of the traces.
The range of brightness is not very dramatic. Try looking at the rise/fall transitions of the calibration waveform as you adjust the intensity. You should see the brightness change in them
