Hantek 2000 Series Operation

I deleted my previous post because I found out that I downloaded the wrong update from Hantek.
It's possible if you are not careful.

Since then I have had the Opportunity to use the 2D72 scope in the field.
There is a little cross talk between the input channels but it is tolerable to me. After all it is a cheap scope and I only need it to verify signals look decent. I would not consider this in any way to be a bench scope. Since it only comes with one scope probe I think Hantek meant it to mostly be a single channel scope.

I have used it to verify DMX signals at a jobsite and it was very useful for that.
I also used the signal source the make a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer). The signal has a fast enough edge to do this. I used channel 1 as the monitor and channel 2 as the trigger.
The source has an output impedance of about 50 Ohms so I added another 62 Ohms as the separator to the test cable. I tested a 110 Ohm DMX cable and was able to see the open end reflected back. Got a good reflected signal, see attachment and correlated the reading to the delay rating of the cable of about 1.3nS per foot.

Also has a decent DVM which makes for one less piece of equipment to drag around.
