Rigol MSO 5000 hardware/software revisions
Gandalf_Sr:
Has anyone here loaded and tried the new firmware vn 00.01.02.00.03?
Is there anyone who can give an objective report on it?

Not yet. I'm afraid I'm being a cowardly custard and waiting for someone else to try it.
At the moment my MSO5000 is in a tangle of cables actually doing some work, so I've got a good reason to delay. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
Look, I'm not even fibbing, taken just now:
Gandalf_Sr:
Hey, looks like you got the outrageously-priced LA probe set there! I used to be a Brit before I gave it up so I understand your banter and you're clearly not fibbing.

I did. I figured by the time I'd spun up a board, bought some connectors and so on to make my own that I'd have spent most of the overpriced price of the probe set. I decided to bite the bullet and get to use the thing now rather than wait until I'd fabricobbled together a probe set. As my next project involves an FPGA I thought that it would be nice to have the LA functionality on hand.
Gandalf_Sr:
From a time perspective, I've spent thousands of dollars on my design for an MSO5000 LA probe. Maybe it will be a dud but, if I succeed, I'll have a design that can get close to the limits of the MSO5000 and cost a fraction of the PLA2216. The PCBs are ordered and I already have all the components.
Wish me luck.
