I can confirm that after the update (and an auto calibration -- needed three attempts until it passed), the traces are exactly centered on the trace markers. Have never seen that before on my DS1000Z since I purchased it some four years ago. They were always riding slightly above the markers. Seems like Rigol finally took care of one of the "minor annoyances" that could still make a difference...

I had the same issue and also noticed the better trace alignment after the update but there are still strange things going on with the alignment. Depending on which of the 4 channels are activated, they again jump slightly above the trace marker. When all channels are active they are all aligned perfectly. When I switch them on separately at least channel 2 is again slightly above the trace marker but jumps back to zero when I also switch on channel 3.

Strange.... anyone else?

It has just been placed unencoded:

And looking at the timestamps, I assume they haven't yet changed the file for the DS2000A

Same here with channel 2. Also, results are much better if you leave the scope powered for half an hour or so. I guess they have been tweaking some thermal compensation.

I ran the update today and then calibrated and now for the first time ever when I turn on all four channels the traces are completely aligned on top of one another with no signal input. I just see a single line. Nice.

Are the traces aligned to the index of the channel anywhere on the display vertically? Meaning, if you move them up or down do hey stay aligned?

No, it tends to be misaligned. :-[

I only looked at alignment of all four traces at the zero line with no inputs connected. I am not sure what you mean by moving the traces up or down vertically. Are you talking about alignment between the channels with each other or alignment with graticule lines? How can I move all four channels together vertically?

Move them one by one and overlap the channel indexes on the middle, on the top most and on the bottom most grid line. Do you see a single line aligned to the indexes in all three cases? I would be surprised if you do. Not even Tek is so perfectly aligned.

Hello,
Sorry for my English.
I would like to know from you, why the zero level binding disappears from channel marker?
My signal is a square of 13 volts DC.
Probe to the 1X setting and when i turn vertical sensitivity to 200mV and lower, signal is shifted up and down, zero level binding with channel marker disappears, and I can not move signal to see its zero level,    
since for ranges of 200mV and below, the offset range is only +- 2V.
Probe switched to the 10X and when i turn vertical sensitivity to 500mV and lower, signal is shifted up, zero level binding with channel marker disappears, but I can moving the signal manually to see the zero level.

This my problem or is it a bug?

The rigol series ds1054z does not support 500mV, so advise to use the DSER option to unlock it, for the little information that you give that problem I do not have it, because if I use the probes in X1 the maximum that I can test is 1mv.

in spanish
el rigol serie ds1054z  no soporta 500mV, por eso aconsejan usar la opcion DSER para desbloquearlo, por la poca informaqcion que das ese problema  yo no lo tengo, ya que si uso las sondas en X1 lo maximo que puedosetear es 1mv

Sure it does. Maybe you mean 500uV. :popcorn:

Correct. If your signal has more than 2V of DC offset then you cannot view it in DC mode.

Do you need zero? You can switch to AC mode and see all of the signal.

b) Using probes on 1x mode is not normal usage. It can cause many problems:

Hi Fkossy,

I cannot find the information in your contributions what firmware you're on and if your scope is "improved"...

Anyway, I'ld always recommend to do a self calibration once in a while (maybe every six months) and after the instrument has been moved to a different location (temperature area). Before performing the "->Utility->(PgDwn)->SelfCal", always let the instrument warm up for an hour or so. If it fails, just try again, on my scope it may take a few attempts to pass (don't know if this is normal but after it passed, the instrument always works satisfactorily).

Moreover, in order to start testing it may be a good idea to press the ->Storage->default keys to be sure to have the scope in a known configuration unless you are sure you want to continue with the last configuration (if it is set up like that).

Good luck and enjoy your DS1000Z

Cheers,
Tom

If you open SparrowApp in "Notepad" there is rigollan in 3 places

Oh, that was the trick!
In the SparrowAPP.out you can find "rigollan" nearby "111111"

But "rigolan" is the right username.

Hi TurboTom, Hi Fungus,

My firmware 00.04.04.03.02, аll options are open from the seller, except 100MHz.
I performed the calibration two times after two hours.
Zero level disappears from the channel marker when probe 1X setting and vertical sensitivity 200mV and lower and probe 10X vertical sensitivity 500mV and lower.
With the sensitivity above everything is fine.

Signal square, DC voltage 13 volts, channel DC input

Does it happen on other channels?

This might be distortion caused by overdriving the input amplifier. Op amps take time to recover if you apply a signal which is far out of their specified input range.
