My vision was VERY good till forty years old, then started to slowly decrease, now that i'm almost fifty i need +3.25 diopters to look at 30cm, +2.5 diopters for 50-60cm, +1.25 diopters for far vision. --- End quote --- My vision is similar to yours (perhaps worse) and I don't have trouble with the Rigol DS2000. |

It's one of the first bits of software I wrote on my older DS1052E. |

I hate them, geometrical distortion everywhere, but i know there is a point beyond which they become a must |O Right now i can live swapping two kind of glasses during different activities, not the best, i know. Your idea to remotely manage the scope was already applied years ago with some custom Labview program developed during the spare time with different DSO, but in a lot of cases i need a direct iteraction between board under test/development and instruments (scope, signal generator, spectrum analyzer and power supply), especially for power boards or rf devices (filter & LNA). I worked some years in ATE development sector (late 80s, till middle of 90s), the gold era of GPIB & VXI chassis, i played a lot with remote instruments management till a point i started to hate that kind of approach, returning to pleasure to deal with display, knobs & buttons :D In my previous job's lab i had access to lot of Tek & Lecroy luxury, but, as you can imagine, for home DIY's needing they are quite an overkill and largely out of budget ;-) |

Anyway, i did not see anything like that in action till now ... |
