new rigol firmware out in the wild?

[matthewell]

I recently bought a cheap Rigol ds1052e since it seemed a very good buy for a beginner, so i thought i would upgrade it to 100mhz as many other people have done but when i checked the firmware version it turned out to be 00.02.06.00.01 which i can’t find any record of so far. Just thought the community would be interested

Thanks

Matt

You can convert from 2.06.

There are some links to the downgrade files that hopefully still work, but if not, A Hellene has the instructions on how to patch files to do the downgrade.

Once you get back to V2.02 Sp2, you are able to change it.
