Rigol red screen of death

<< < (3/13) > >>

bd139:
:( I'd probably buy a new one then. The lifespan of these looking at the engineering is a couple of years at most. I actually just shifted mine and am using an old Tek because I can actually repair that if it goes bang.

frozenfrogz:
I have not had a look inside the MSO1000Z series, so this is just a wild guess:
Does the board have a backup battery? I think the 2000z series does have a 3V lithium coin cell. Might possibly be a dead battery issue.

Daruosha:
The coin cell battery in the DS/MSO 2000 series keeps the internal RTC going.  AFAIK, the 1000z series do not have a builtin RTC and they don't need a backup battery inside.

bd139:
There was no RTC in mine.

Shock:
You could try following what happened in this thread.

You might want to reseat the cables and test voltages at the power cable. The caps in the supply are cheap and high hours on the supply may be a contributing factor. So first rule out the easy stuff.

I think the back of the main PCB has voltages/labels in english.

I have just tried that. Put the firmware file on a USB-stick. Insert the stick in the front of the scope and turn it on.
When I turn on the scope, it gives a beep, but thats all.

Ohh crap!!

Ok, its fixed now. I inserted the USB-stick, and during power-on I repeatedly pressed the "Help" button on the scope. The scope booted and asked if I wanted to update the firmware. I pressed "Cancel" and the scope is now working again.
