Sparky:I think that you probably meant to ask 'carpelux' this question. > Edited 1/30/2014: Maybe Not, because I now see he later edited his comments (Ref. * below). <
Please read
carpelux's report again that I partially copied below. He purchased a brand new DP832 that came with .08 firmware and the Trial options of course, but 'Trigger'
* was inactive already (the same as our units that we upgraded from .06 to .08). Apparently Rigol didn't notice this, or don't care (possibly because this is the desirable result for them at this time(?)).
Note: *
He initially said that: that the 'Trigger' "Trial" was inactive already', but now I see that he has edited this comment out, although
this was the key comment that my response was based on.carpelux: Would you please explain why you later removed this information from you comments? This is critical information for us to understand what is going on with Rigol's FW .08. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Today I received a newly bought DP832 after nearly a months wait. Luckily it came with 1.08 firmware, I was a bit afraid it should be delivered with 1.09, preventing me from generating a key.
We don't, and won't normally hear from people that buy their options on this forum, because they would only be here because the options can be had for free here by the use of a keygen. If your going to be fully up front with Rigol then you don't have to read all these threads to learn how to beat the system with a keygen, or be concerned about what firmware updates are safe. If your not hacking, then life is much easier, but then you won't be getting any free options. So it will be difficult to find out how things are for those who buy their options and then upgrade the firmware.
Thank you very much Sparky for providing this subject listing (DP832 - Firmware list and bugs) for all of us!
