Well, oh...
At Agilent it is very easy to find new firmware and changelog on their website http://www.home.agilent.com And you do not need any registration.
It is strange to find the GW Instek changelog on a greek forum...
Felt off-topic at first getting into how Agilent does things but I see how it's relevant as a comparison. Would be nice if Instek took a page from Agilent's book on firmware updates.
Have you seen this competitive datasheet DPO2000B vs. GDS-2000A?
On this
gwinstek.com page you can find their own "Comparison fact sheet between GDS-2000A and Tek MSO/DPO2000B". Of course it's biased to show the Instek having more checks and the Tek having more x's haha.
Also note that, although prices vary, I got my GDS-2204A and 8-channel LA option for about $1000 USD less than the Tektronix DPO2024B costs without any options. So of course you would expect the Tek to significantly outperform or have other desirable features to justify the cost (and I'm not saying it doesn't).
Well, come on... The GW Instek has a search function, too. Don't you know it, Tektronix guys??
Nice catch - I've actually used the search feature and it's kind of nice. Way better than scrolling and scrolling and scrolling. Still a little "clunky" but I might not notice that as much when I'm more used to how it works.
So - has anyone tried the new firmware yet? I see I still can't find it very easily on gwinstek.com so maybe it's still pending final release. Or maybe this is as close as we'll get.
