Agilent/Keysight X-series spectrum analyzer N9020A Hacking - anyone done this?

[wldshy]

Well, it seems an Agilent/Keysight N9020A-503 MXA spectrum analyzer will find the way to me. Unfortunately it seems to come with the basic config, so I wonder if anyone managed to hack any of these or any other X-series spectrum analyzer. Of course my main interest is to enable the N9020A-EDP, N9060A series spectrum analysis extension, N9063A analog demod, N9064A digital demod, N9068A phase noise meansurement, N9069A noise figure meansurement, N9051A pulse meansurement and N6141A EMI test, but getting some of the other options would be nice, too.

Any ideas?

Out of curiosity, was any progress made on enabling software options? I'm assuming your analyer runs windows xp.

Not much help, but this seems to be a Globetrotter FlexLM type of license.
There are keygen for several products using it, so the algorithm should be easy to find.
Of course you will need the seeds, so it becomes necessary to either use a hacked daemon or use IDA Pro on it.

AFAICR, wldshy was using a patched software. As such, those licenses that he shows are bogus and only serve to foul the daemon.
