Re-enabling options on an Agilent DSO81204A?
G0HZU:
OK that's good. I'm nervous/reluctant to explore the memory or bandwidth or noise options because there are so many of them and it might confuse or even damage your scope if I unlock an incompatible option. There also seem to be options for pretty much every type of interface found on a PC motherboard or network or graphics card and plenty of other stuff I don't recognise. But some of it probably won't be for your scope so it could cause problems. Also, I don't know the correct three digit code for any of these options unless it's obvious (and safe) like the LSS code for low speed serial. I did check the datasheet and your scope does support the LSS option so I did expect it to work OK :)

I appreciate your concern. I'm curious, though, how a software option could damage the scope's hardware (I presume that's what you meant). If one of the codes were to cause a problem, wouldn't the software just object to it somehow, and then it would just be a matter of restoring the license file to its previous state?
I agree that there are lots more options available for this scope, but there are only three that would be of any use to me: InfiniiScan, Noise Reduction, and Increased Bandwidth (in that order).
To reiterate, I am extremely grateful for all the help you've given me so far, and I understand your reluctance to generate potentially hazardous codes. But having said that, if you ever do want to generate more codes I'll be willing to assume any and all risks and give them a try!

Reading this thread (and others), I don't have the impression that the key generation scheme is know (for the DSO80K), is that correct ? Or did I just miss something ??
I don't know what series share the same firmware, but I assume it's not just the DSO80K, so it should be worth the effort, no... ?

I think it is known... I managed to generate two valid codes on this thread? It's something like a 1 in 281,474,976,710,656 chance to get it right each time if I had just guessed it? ... but I got it right twice with two lucky guesses? Maybe I should try the lottery :)

Hi GOHZU, How one could generate their own license.dat file?
thanks'
