Does anybody know what kind of logic probe is suitable for RTB2004 ?
I assume there is no one in promo package (only software option is enabled)
and this is not just a straight 250MHz wires ... :-)
Why would you assume it wouldn't be included? It's sold as a MSO.
On the RTO, the probe has the comparators and LVDS drivers to send a differential signal over the ribbon.
I've found that some other source say 4 Analog probes so I hope (1) does not mean one piece of ... in this case. But I can't found pictures/spec etc. what does RTB-B1 include. I've spoke to one of the distributors and he was very uncetrain about those logic probe. I feelt that he do not want to say for potential buyer that there is none.
Incoming!
Let me know any specific questions. At show today so can't play til later.

Does the UI work smothly, and does the display, typically, update at a decent rate? How are the decoding functions?
On the other hand KS might release the successor of the DSOX2K earlier than before to compete against the RTB ?

EUR 1900.-- + VATIt is interesting that this website lists Hameg MSO probes as an acessoiry. I think there is more Hameg under the hood than R&S. I hope this scope has the BNCs bolted to the front and the PCB properly fixed to the chassis unlike the cheaply built Hameg scopes.
edit: OMG: they use ribbon cable for the MSO probes which cost over 300 euro each:
Well it looks like this one isn't going to happen. The story at Tequipment has changed. On Friday I was told the unit had been shipped by the R&S warehouse and they would get it in 2 day to reship to me. I had placed the order at 5AM the morning of the announcement. Now they are telling me May 3, maybe.

Given that R&S are the only company to ever approach me to have hack material removed from the website,
(BTW, they never did get back to me on exact which posts violated their copyright...)
A "true game changer" would be to simply make good scopes, with no ransom payments to enable crippled hardware features.
Don't forget as a buyer you are also paying for the counterproductive development of the security features and obfuscation they had to build into the machine to protect their precious cripple-ware tricks.

Let's see if they do a promotion with free decode options as they have done in the past. 800 bucks for UART, I2C and SPI is insane.
Noticed on the TestEquity site "Temporarily Sold Out. Delivery for all new orders is 30 days. Approximately 11 left for new orders as of 3/20 - Place your order before supplies run out completely!"
Still unclear if all scope sold are "new orders" and "delivery for all new orders is 30 days" or if at some point in the past was okay and that new orders now (for the 11 additional .... allocated?... scopes) is 30 days. Either way, my "expected date" is 0000-00-00 .
I asked R&S UK about the MSO and the person I spoke with was under the impression the digital probes are not included. I would try and clarify this because it is an expensive addition.
