Rigol DS1000Z - firmware patch & plugins

[valcher]

Hello!
Sorry, I don't know if I chose the right topic, but I need help or advice.
When updating the firmware on the Rigol DS1102Z-E, the power was accidentally lost. Now, after turning on, the RIGOL splash screen appears, the button backlights turn on one by one, but then everything stops. How can I resurrect the oscilloscope, what should I do?

I solved the problem thanks to this post - https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/new-rigol-ds1054z-oscilloscope/msg3608676/#msg3608676
Everything has been restored to its best.
Thanks to the forum.

Please add also the copying of the GEL file in the NAND, since it may/usually contain the bootloader. That makes available the GELs with bootloaders that are not public.

This does not make sense, since the bootloader must be in spi-nvram (the processor is loaded from there). You just need to cut off the tail of the DS1KZ_NVRAM.BIN.

Everyone can brick their devices now...  The only thing missing is a tutorial to start from scratch with a full-erased device.

It's simple
1) Open device
2) Write a file DS1KZ_NVRAM.BIN to W25X40 (by jtag, by external programmer or any other method)
3) Insert USB Flash with gel and  power on

   


where can i get that file DS1KZ_NVRAM.BIN
