 @G0HZU:  would it be possible to send you a PM ????? (currently blocked...)

Hi,

Yes the key generation scheme is known, and is based on Flexera's  flexlm licensing scheme.

Licenses for the  DSO80K are non ECC SIGN=12, and can be generated fairly easy.
The newer style licenses for the DSO90K are ECC SIGN=84 and are much more difficult

regards

Ah ha... these definitely reminded me of flexlm licenses. Do you know if this format persists for the 3K series? I just acquired a 3KT, but havent gotten mich past turning it on so far. :)

Mr Nutts:
Hello Mr G0HZU,

Can I ask you to give me a hand with my DSO8064A? When I got it someone had wiped the disk, I found an image and have XP and the scope application running but there is no license file and so none of the options it should have are working.

My scope also doesn't have license codes on the back but I also got two very bad copies of the invoices which lists the product codes of the options the original owner bought for this scope (unfortunately I didn't get the license
certificates with the keys):

- N547A-640   128Mpts on 2ch/64Mpts on 4ch
- N5415A   InfiniiScan
- E2681A   EZJIT
- N5391A   Low-speed Serial Data
- N5384A   High-speed Serial Data
- N5402A   Automotive Serial Data
- E2625A   Communications Mask Test Kit
- N5392A   Ethernet
- N5416A   USB 2.0
- U1882A-001   Power measurement for Infiniium oscilloscopes
- N5430A   User-defined function
- E2682A   Voice Control

There's another invoice which lists this:

89601A   VSA software for Infiniium
89601A-200   Basic Software
89601A-300   Hardware Connectivity
89601A-AYA   Flexible Modulation Analysis
89601A-BHB   MB-ODFM

They spent nearly $45'000 on these options alone!!! Insane!!  :scared:

Anyways, I'd really like to get some (all?) of the options back.

Can you help me Mr G0HZU please?

G0HZU:
You should be able to get all the codes from Keysight (based on the scope serial number) assuming they keep reliable records. I don't think it's a good idea for me to generate your codes for various reasons so your best bet is to contact Keysight.

Note that I think the 8960x SW uses the 21x4 SIGN system in FLEXLM and this is more secure. The version of the 8960x SW I have here uses this system so I assume they all do. That doesn't mean it isn't possible to create DIY .lic or .dat files for it but it is a tougher system. When digging inside their code I found there are extra (hidden) options within the 8960x SW that can be released with a suitable feature entry in a custom .lic file. I've done this and got these options but I never experimented with them to see what they do. They aren't documented anywhere by Keysight. I think I found about 10 hidden options but I can't remember now. I did all this stuff a few years ago now when I bought an old E4406A VSA to use with this SW.
