If that's the case then I'm not sure you can even use Riglol to generate a key, I would suspect not but who am I...
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't know I currently don't have a need for the power analyzer so I'm not going to mess around with it.

Yes.

The scope options I've enabled long ago but I switched back to the default 100MHz of the DS4012.
Yesterday I've tried the first time to go back to 500MHz after I've installed the latest firmware by using Ultra Sigma as described in the PDF you've attached. That works fine! Thank you for that.

Then I've thought to download Ultra Power Analyzer. Done so.

Ultra Power Analyzer can be set "online", which connects to the scope and identifies its serial number. Either the 15 days trial is working or a 4x7 key has to be entered. Thought you've meant that also. And when entering the key there likewise it replies with the message that it does not match.

Well, it's not so important but would be an interesting tool. I can't see any Power option on the scope as the other options like RS232, SPI,.... so I was thinking that the key would only make sense to be used with the PC application itself.

I am wondering if the Power Analysis option for the Rigol scopes and the Power Analysis PC software are two unrelated things.  I can't see why there would need to be two separate (and presumably purchased) keys, one for the scope and the other for the PC software, to get PA running.  I would like to think that the PA option for the scope (once implemented) would be a self-contained  mode, and the PC software (I guess once tied to a specific scope) would just analyze data dumps from the scope memory.  :-//

Asks me for a key with 4 fields but generating it the same way as described shows that it does not work.
Seems that there's missing a character in the 1st and 3rd field.

Hmm, that's where I've started. Does not help, or did I understand something wrong?

That was my thinking, too.

That's why I've understood it that way, that the keys generated with the same characters as for the scope have to be used for unlocking the PC app, too.

The only possible answer for the question would be that the scope as well as the PC software have to be unlocked to communicate afterwards. But that would imply that both exchange the confirmation about the unlocked option.

Well guys,

the key does not work, but I've checked the registry in between. Ultra Power follows the same concept as Ultra Spectrum for the DSA815 which I have got, too.
Under [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RIGOL Technologies, Inc\Ultra Sigma\Tools] there are 2 entries now which let me come to the conclusion, that after
15 days both can be reset with the registry hack used only for Ultra Spectrum before.
So I've set the date to the next month, and as expected Ultra Power asked me for the key to be activated. I've used the registry hack and voila - worked fine again!

So. there's a way for using Ultra Power unlimited as Ultra Spectrum before  :) :) :)
