Yes; I could not find this on both Rigols above. Perhaps I am missing something, but I really could not find such count.
It will be in a Utilitiy or System menu or sub menu.
Likely also displays HW, FW, SN etc

Yep, I found the menu that displays all this info, but the number of power cycles is not there (both the 1102E and the 4014)

I finally found one of my pieces of equipment that has a true "boot count":

You can tell I've used it a lot, a whole 11 power cycles!

I discovered this screen when I updated the Firmware recently (thanks Franky!)

I purchased 2 off Franky.
Mine are running v2.4.
Where do I get the updated firmware?

Email him and he will send you a link and instructions.

I had to make a pogo-pin adapter on protoboard:

Well, may as well join in. No power cycle counter on these.

That's very surprising, but I'd wager there is.
Maybe not accessable to the user but probably in a Service menu like the TDS Teks.

So for all the cracking and hacking of Rigols has nobody found this yet.

Shameless bump.

Siglent SHS810

At the risk of hurting my chances to get this, I'm going to bump this thread because it's pretty awesome what Siglent is doing.

Hacked Hantek DSO1052B boot time is 13.93 sec and 54 cycles.

I don't know how real the first one is bearing in mind the age of the scope.

McBryce · « **Reply #33 on:** July 20, 2015, 09:24:19 pm »

I have a Tektronix 2465 (no A or B). Can I pull up that info on it too? And if so, what buttons do I need to be pressing?

McBryce.

McBryce.

It's in appendix A of the 2465/67B manual. I'm out and about at the mo, but something along the lines of holding the delta V and delta T buttons and while holding them press trigger Slope.

Then upper and lower trigger Mode selects test or exercise.

Press Upper triggering button to execute, lower to exit.

A/B trigger button to exit.

I may have transcribed that wrongly, almost through a bottle of Cloudy Bay SB. Bad day at the office. :-)

This much maligned scope had been my trusty steed for nearly a decade until I found eevblog. With it, I developed a number of successful products. Difficult to think it's only had 563 genuine power cycles considering its value in terms of the hardware it helped me develop over those years.

But seeing that crusty 320x240 screen just now after its months in hibernation, eugh! I may grimace now, but not half as much as I did when I bit my tongue and paid £1,800 (~$3k) for it new a decade ago.

GreyWoolfe · « **Reply #39 on:** July 31, 2015, 10:27:11 pm »

I might as well redo this with a pic to make Sigilent happy. Boot time is still 13.93.
