YET ANOTHER HACK SUMMARYI had all options + 300 MHz on my DS2072A, then I upgraded to the latest firmware, and lost all the hacks. It took me some time to figure out how to get them back.
This is my summary (should work for a new out-of-the-box DS2072A as well):
1 - Download & unzip the latest "Rigol Bildschirmkopie LAN/USB" from
http://peter.dreisiebner.at/rigol-bildschirmkopie-lan/2 - Connect scope to LAN.
3 - Run the RigolBildschirmkopie.exe, click Device>Select>Search>Select.
4 - Do Device>SCPI-Command, then Send & receive ":SYST:UTIL:READ? 1,33554432".
Wait a long time (~5 to 10 min) for it to complete.
Click Save, save it as "memoryDump.scpi" (save this file for future use!!)
5 - Download and unzip Rigup 0.4 (or later) from
http://gotroot.ca/rigol/.6 - Open a command window where you unzipped Rigup 0.4, copy memoryDump.scpi into the same folder.
7 - In the command window do: "rigup ds2072a memoryDump.scpi"
This will produce an output something like:
rigup ds2072a - Version 0.4
Serial number: DSxxxxx
NSEH: JPJQLFK-G3QNRLU-WFFFZMD-xxxxxxx All options, no bandwidth upgrade
NSER: 8NXBL2U-JE2LZL7-9NEN5XK-xxxxxxx All options, bandwidth 100 MHz
NSEQ: R939MMG-NR63H25-9H993PX-xxxxxxx All options, bandwidth 200 MHz
NS8H: G2YRFYX-D589HNR-4K8YW3H-xxxxxxx All options, bandwidth 300 MHz
8 - rigup scan MyKeys memoryDump.scpi
This will write your keys to the file "MyKeys".
9 - rigup license MyKeys NS8N
This produces an output something like:
5P89ZX7-LYMCTCS-P4PQ792-xxxxxxx (NS8N = 0x1C0C3)
10 - Run RigolBildschirmkopie.exe again, click Device>Select>Search>Select (again).
11 - Click Device>SCPI-Command, then send & receive:
:SYSTem:OPTion:INSTall <key to the right of NSEQ in step 7>
The key (from step 7) MUST have the dashes removed.
For example:
:SYSTem:OPTion:INSTall R939MMGNR63H259H993PXxxxxxxx
At this point you should have all options + 200 MHz.
12 - Click Device>SCPI-Command, then send & receive:
:SYSTem:OPTion:INSTall <key from step 9>
Again, the key must have all dashes removed.
For example:
:SYSTem:OPTion:INSTall 5P89ZX7LYMCTCSP4PQ792xxxxxxx
That's it; you should have 300 MHz + all options now.
Maybe you can skip step 11 - I haven't tried it that way.
If you mess up, no problem. Just send ":SYSTem:OPTion:UNINSTall" and start over.
