--- Quote from: Gandalf_Sr on June 18, 2020, 02:10:27 pm ---So, a hub seems like a good purchase.  Can anyone confirm what works with the MSO5000?  I think it's USB 2.0 and wondered if this one from Amazon would do?

Yes, if you need to have additional devices - like flash memory to save screen capture & other possible ssh console sessions - then a small usb hub is the way to go.

I used a USB3 hub and it worked ok - so I guess the Rigol, if USB2 only, will still work with a USB3 hub because the USB3 'chipset' will still interface to USB2 - keeping in mind that the port 'activity' will be downgraded to USB2 - despite having a USB3 device plugged-in  ;)

With that in mind - I would not get a USB2 hub - instead get a USB3 hub - as it will downgrade itself to USB2 when plugged-into the Rigol

Now if you ever want to use the hub not with the Rigol - you will have a USB3 capable hub -> better than USB2  :P

Just watched video review of MSO7000 (unboxing and first impressions) - Dave made some time ago  :o

At ~47min into the video - Dave starts talking about the 'dicky' layout of the fonts for the buttons & text  :blah:

After having a closer look at the 'new' MSO5000 - I'm glad to say its way better than the 7000 - Dave was right - its 'dicky' :P

So - we all good - MSO5000 series 'trumps' button text and font layout of the 7000 series :-+

So my USB 3.0 Hub arrived and it works great.  I have the mouse dongle plugged in the end slot.

I just got my MSO5074 delivered today:
- FW: 00.01.03.00.01
- HW: 01.01.000
- Build: 2020-03-30 // calibration date: 2nd June 2020.
I'm happy with both noise level (my laptop is noisier) and screen.
NoisyBoy:
Thanks for the info.

FYI, the Build is not the date your scope was built, it was tied to the firmware version.  The best way to approximate your actual manufactured date for your scope is the date on the cal cert.
