Oscilloscope option discussion
pdenisowski:
Since the topic keeps coming up in other threads, I'm creating a separate thread for discussion of oscilloscope options (hardware and software) across all manufacturers.

Yes, it's the exact same probe.

Question: If I have 2 RTB2000 scopes and would like to share RT-ZL03 Logic probes between them, I buy RTB-B1, and install license on one of the scopes. Can I buy just software license for the other one?
I couldn't find that info. I know I can buy only hardware probe separately (to replace missing/ damaged ones).
But can I just buy SW "unlock" for the second scope so I can share probe between 2 scopes because I want to use it just occasionally?

Note that this comes with the probes (2 times RT-ZL04, 8 channels each, so 16 channels total). There's no additional software license needed for basic logic analysis / digital channels.

Thanks for clarifying. Maybe some would find it more convenient to just install a SW-license whenever they want to, instead of needing to have some physical hardware installed inside the scope.

Specialized hardware is needed for acquiring the digital / logical channels, especially for HW based triggering and filtering, so we couldn't make this a SW only license

It's going to be out later this month, will be hardware-based (extremely fast), and will be free :)

I'll check with the product line, but I'm pretty sure that we don't sell the license without the probes (since we don't have an order number for that).
