How did https://www.eevblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=2788.msg37693#msg37693 fair? He bought from a local dealer, and the link above was his solution. --- Quote from: yachtronics on March 30, 2011, 12:20:44 am --- --- Quote from: looser101 on March 30, 2011, 12:13:55 am ---I'm experiencing the same problem. 00.02.05.02.00 DSP 00.00 FPGA 02.00 hw58 --- End quote --- It looks like a bad batch or firmware bug. Anybody heard from Rigol ? If you have a 'useful' contact at Rigol I wouldn't mind knowing his email address --- End quote --- |

I contacted Rigol on their website last night. I asked if, what I am experiencing, might be a firmware or a hardware problem. This was their response: Dear ********? Thanks for contacting with RIGOL. As with your question ?it's probably the firmware problem. so please turn to our local agency where you purchase it for direct support. If there is any other question ?please feel free to let me know. Thanks for your great support to RIOGL. Since I bought it from DX and I'm in Canada, I will probably wait it out. One thing I did notice was that after several hours powered on, it did seem to stop (~3hrs). |

Sorry for posting in such an old thread, but since other people are having the same issue I figured it would be good to reply. I got a new scope from Saelig a while ago, but nearly identical behavior. I figured this would be the case after so many other people saw the same issue. Since there is now a way to downgrade from 00.02.05.02.00, I was able to do the normal DS1052 -> DS1102 hack, and as part of that went back to firmware 02.04 sp1 (whatever specific version that the ds1052 hack thread recommends, can't remember). The problem seems to be entirely gone, and I have a much better scope to boot! So yeah, go forth and downgrade. |

@Kyren Thanks for the feedback. I reported the same problem too. Now with the 'downgrade facility' being made available. I don't see why Rigol can't release an official firmware update to fix this problem. Whoever wants to change the bandwidth can, either by firmware or hardware modification. Rigol should concentrate on eradicating the reported bugs. |
