Have you guys seen this video?
Did you watch it?
That is cool looking display mode. But what it is used for?
If you have any kind of persistence, you can overlay millions of captures to look for existence of the glitch. It is an old technique.
There are no measurements while it is running or displaying it. No decoding..
What will you use it for? It looks cool on on a shelf in a store but what do you use it for?
It is just a marketing gimmick....
Many of those visualization modes are already there on other scopes. With segmented mode you can overlay segments on Keysight, even on older Rigols. With segmented and history mode you can overlay captures on Siglent too. And they will measure and decode on that data...
What part of your process will it make so better that it will change your life?
The fact that you can immediately see the time distribution of infrequent events, though the 100 trace limit may limit its usefulness.
Persistance will tell you that something happened, but not how often or the distribution over time.
There are also event types that don't display well with persistence which would be much easier to see with the perspective mode.
I can think of a couple of situations where this would have saved me significant debugging time.
100 trace limit is exactly the point :it makes it cool but not really useful.
For instance: any scope that has history /segmented mode you can overlay and/or do animation... And can
calculate distribution by using measurements...
Don't get me wrong, there are LeCroy scopes that can do these kinds of visualizations but on full data sets and full math. Where you can actually analyze things. With this Rigol implementation it is maybe just marginally (visually) better than classic infinite persistence.
Fun fact: on MSO3000T I can get statistics on glitches by capturing representative data and making a mask on it. Then by using mask mode I get count and stat on all anomalies. I can do same thing with Siglent.
You can also use search to search for anomalous pulse widths, risetimes or else.
On Picoscope you can also show all segments visually but that is useful for only few dozen segments.
If you have 10000 segments, fining something visually is simply punishment.
Breakthrough , a game changer, would be something like WaveScan on sub 2000€ scope.
Don't get me wrong, it is very nice step in right direction for Rigol.
But if you have a Siglent SDS1104X-E for instance, selling it and buying Rigol DHO800 would not be game changer in any case. It would be incremental positive step in analog performance (slightly better noise and 12 bit), touchscreen interface, and a step backwards in other analytical capacities: no history mode, no FRA, no CAN/LIN decode etc....
If you have MSO5000, unless you absolutely need low noise and 12 bit, it is a serious downgrade....
Fact is, only scope the DHO800/900 really directly competes with is Rigol's own DS1000Z/MSO series
And DHO814 would be upgrade to DS1000Z even if it were 8bit. With 12 bit low noise it is obvious replacement for DS1000Z.
And that is also Rigol's internal placement. You can see it in careful choice of decodes that matches DS1000Z.
