is Rigol DS1054Z still hackable ?
<< < (8/30) > >>
Terry01:
I've been going to do mine but haven't got round to it yet. Mine has everything upgraded right from the factory except the 100Mhz upgrade. I may do it over the weekend!
That's good to know the hack doesn't affect any of the stuff done already at the factory. I did wonder about that too.

I had this same question, but I felt confident enough to buy it, because nowadawys the 1000z series comes with all the decoders, triggers etc. excepti for the 500uV / division and 100Mhz  BW (I'm not sure if actually enlarge the bandwidth), but I've heard it has almost the same hardware of 1100 series (I didn't check this info) - if someone knows that, please confirm.


Anyway,

I've tried to hack it using the website, but it didn't work. I also used different browsers, but they generated the same key.


So, what did was download the .zip from the website and run it locally.

As the only 2 features that were not yet unlocked in my Rigol 1054z 04.04 software version are:
 - 500 uV / division
 - 100 Mhz BW

I generated one key at a time to unlock each feature, using the .exe (downloaded):
.\riglol.exe yourpartnumber DSBA     (to unlock 500uV)
.\riglol.exe yourpartnumber DSEA     (to unlock 100Mhz)



Now it works fine.

It's exactly the same hardware.

Unlocking 500uV is a bad idea, the hardware doesn't support it and it's easy to select accidentally (annoying!)
Fungus:
You can remove upgrades by connecting to it with a LAN cable and using Telnet (port 5555). Then type:

:SYSTem:OPTion:UNINSTall

Then use Riglol to generate a key with DSER options, that's everything except 500uV. Over LAN you can install keys easily with:

:SYSTem:OPTion:INSTall RDXXXXXXYOURKEYXXXXXXXXX
