| How to hack app modules on MDO4000B? |
| (1/2) > >> |

Hi folks, I'm new here on this forum. I've digged it for hours looking for an application modules hack for a Tek MDO4054B-6. I came across the threads [MDO3000 Hacking] and [Someone has hacked MDO4000C?], but could not find a way to enable the applications on -B series, just the -C one. I found a doc in [MDO3000 Hacking] showing how to access manufacturer mode on -B but nothing about enabling extra applications. I'm interested on enabling protocol decoders for LA. Any hint on that? Cheers. Alex. Enviado de meu SM-G930F usando o Tapatalk |

Order this board from OSHPark: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/pE9Ff8iu and then follow these instructions: https://www.scribd.com/doc/236065278/Cloning-Tektronix-Application-Modules-pdf |

Thanks @andyturk I've saw this project for MSO2000, but I was not aware it is compatible to MDO4000B series. I found nothing about such use on internet. Cheers. Alex. |

The DPO4BND and MDO4TRIG options should unlock everything on the scope. |

That's awesome. I saw in other post you have (or had) a MDO4034B. Did you unlock these app features using this "board" hack? By the way, reading the project, it says to write the SKU in the EEPROM but didn't mention the offset. Should I just write "DPO4EMBD" starting on address 0x00? Cheers. Alex. |
