Keysight New instruments
SilverSolder:
Just last week, I downloaded the software for the Agilent 65422D scope from the Keysight web site - for free.
Obviously that's what Keysight ought to do with anything less than mid range instruments, just to get their software out there and get people addicted! :D

If you have the license for all 4 of these instruments, no subscription, that would be just awesome.

The existing 5.5 digit 34450A comes with the BenchVue software, so I'd expect the same here too.

The Benchvue yes. The DMM part requires a separate license, that is called "Keysight BV0001B Digital Multimeter Control & Automation Software Application". It is sold at 330 EUR including Tax.
Function gen is another 330 EUR
Power supply is another 330 EUR
Oscilloscope another 330 EUR
And these are node locked licenses. Example:

I get that for a high end workbench for a test lab this is peanuts. For low end instruments, like we have here, the price/value is terrible.

Ah, the datasheet has a sneaky asterix
EEVblog:
JUst shot another quick video to show an issue on the manual ranging as well. With the input probes just sitting there on my bench, I get overloading on the manual 1V range, and it alternates between overload and some random voltage, this is with fixed 10M input.
Also, I didn't realise last time that I had the ground probe in the wrong jack, it was in the sense jack. Guess they neede more visual differentiation there.
Anyway, in fast sampling mode I get the autorange issue cying the range relay at 5+ times per second, it makes a hell of a racket, again at 10M input.
I think they still have a few issues to iron out...

"Now included" >:(
If you get a chance when you are trying out the scope, could you test its ability to recover from input amplifier overdrive? I had this issue recently that was apparent on one (newer) scope and not with any of my older scopes. I don't have access to any newer, name-brand low-end scopes. I posted about the issue here:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/siglent-sds1104x-e-anomaly-on-what-should-be-a-simple-task/msg3450362/#msg3450362
and if that's too much reading, jump down to:

TLDR version: 5Vp-p 1kHz square wave with a 10kHz 100mV pulse, expand the vertical to see the pulse--which puts the larger 5V level way off the top of the screen. If the overdrive recovery is very slow, the pulse will be a mess.

The scope is not new, it's already been out a long time. Guess they sent it just to "complete the set" they are obviously looking to bundle together as an educational package.
