Seems to be some hick-up weirdness issued on the page before.

Edit: I added the update procedure as recommended by BravoV to the OP. Anything else I missed to include?

I just retried the calibration and it went well, without other special procedures.
Little note: the additional soft buttons were present when it succeeded (the third try). Now they're gone.

That´s not 100 % correct... - they´re just hidden.
In the (let´s call it) "expanded mode" they´re visible.
 
How to get in the "expanded mode"?
Fast pressing the hard buttons [Menu] [Menu] [Force] [Menu]
Then pressing the hard button [Utility]

After that:
Press the soft buttons <System> and <System Info> gives the expanded system info.
Or, press the soft button <Self-Cal> and the scope shows the usual two soft buttons "Start" and "Exit"
and additional two soft buttons: "LFCal" and "Output".

With a DS1054Z both functions are failing.                             :-//
Perhaps the first is associated to an inbuild logic analyzer, the second to the function generator of a 1054S?

Gary.M:
Key elements of my scope are:

Board version: 0.1.1
Boot version: 0.0.1.2

I'm reluctant to try the upgrade, but I did test for the freeze on zoom bug. I followed instructions to the letter and I was able to keep using the scope beyond that. Is the Freeze referred to one that requires a power cycle to recover from?

How come your Board Version has been updated, too?
From 0.1.1 to 4.1.1.
I thought that was only possible in hardware.

Looks like lots of people are amazed by that.  :-DD

Its possible, by upgrading the latest firmware, it even popped out a new knob and new functionality.  >:D



Ok, seriously ...

Just to repeat just in case you missed it, its NOT DS1054Z , its a DS1104Z-S, watch "S" (highlighted) suffix, means it has a 25MHz function generator (FG) board that DS1054Z doesn't have, also its already 100MHz ready/capable from factory, not a hacked DS1054Z.

My "speculation" on the instantaneous magically board/hardware upgrade is, since in the detail firmware's screen, those lazy programmers just don't want to add additional field to show the FG's firmware, so they just "duct-taped" it at the most significant digit at the board version number to indicate that, probably to aid Rigol's field engineer or their support staffs.

Again, this is just my guess, but it makes sense though.
