Rigol North America Black Friday sale on DHO1000 series

<< < (12/13) > >>

t3chiman:
Ordered a DHO1074 from Rigol NA as time expired on Black Friday pricing. What a nifty scope! Off the bat, the web interface was unusable; most of the data fields were empty, and the network entries were unstable. I updated the firmware to 0.02.11, and the web interface calmed down, very helpful in fact. I found the official firmware instructions confusing. Ended up using the Start menu, and the Storage->Disk submenus to select the .GEL file. The UPGRADE button worked fine. I repeated the firmware upgrade process to go to 0.02.12 with no problem.

The option upgrade process was painless.

Thanks to the eevblog crowd for expert and timely comments.

So... what has Rigol got to offer us this year for th Black Friday?

I never owned a Rigol oscilloscope before, so....

I have two devices.
An Oszi DHO1104 and a Generator DG822pro.
Poor firmware update service....
..and no software improvements.

For the DG... I've been waiting for an update for almost a year.
Never again Rigol!
Better to spend a little more money and have more fun.
For example: Batronix Magnova.... :)

Whilst I share your view on Rigol's quality practices and customer service, I don't think we can fairly say that the Magnova is 'a little more money'. However good it might prove to be, that series is vastly more expensive than the Rigol models mentioned previously in this thread.

arhh..doesn't that simply meen that Rigol knocked it out of the park from the get-go.   :-//
Yea, it's quite staggering.. not even one update, since I purchased my Rigol DG821PRO at Singles day last year (delivered mid december2023) 
the one it arrived with, still lists as the latest, here a year later.
Rigol in a nutshell.
