@@jensgoerke3819 As long as one side of the cable complies to the standard it's already fine. I have no reason to believe that Rigol wouldn't comply. They are too big of a company to ignore these things. If it would be a no name Chinese company, maybe. But you would have much bigger issues besides a scope at that point.
I've had 2 WiFi cards from a reputable manufacturer with the MAC address FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF - if they can screw up such basic things, they can screw up everywhere.
That's neat it runs a hacked up version of android, just like what they do with car head units as it's easier to develop on. I wonder if we can hack the usb module internally or use usb/ip??
Didn't work for me, WiFi option is Off and won't budge. Connected ethernet and it acquired immediately. But even worse, with ethernet connected, I cannot upgrade the firmware. It just twirls and twirls forever, after more than one hour and was scared that it would become bricked if I turned scop off. Alas, nothing had happened. Then I tried to update it manually by downloading file and that too failed. Firmware is stuck on 1.00 and looks to be there forever.
Hey man. Im looking to sell my mso5354 and get 2 of these. One for my garage bench for chasing shorts in cars. I used my old tek scope to fix my car but i dont like using that scope because its kinda rare where i live. I dont like the rigol mso5354. Im not a professional engineer and it has far more options than ill ever use. I got it for free when a hurricane destroyed my workshop. It was one of a demo model from a reseller in canada. The logic analyzer probes are all i want to keep.
Ohhh, the brightness tip was super helpful! Thanks! And I just ordered the TP-Link dongle, too. 😉
There is still the option to use an ethernet to wifi adapter, bridge or mini router. Does the same thing, is just not as small
This would be a last resort for those scope models that can't support a usb wifi dongle.
Ah ha! Fixed! Thanks @voltlog!
WiFi is also a safety feature - even in case of a catastrophic failure the rest of the network is isolated/insulated.
All ethernet connections are galvanically isolated, since this is part of the ethernet specification.
Or in simple words, grounds are not connected.
If all manufacturers follow the specifications - not all do and from personal experience alone I'm not going to assume otherwise.

They didn't want to pay for the RFI certification would be my understanding, it's all about keeping costs down.

I don't see why you'd care about usb/ip, once its on the network then you can access it from any PC over http or adb.
Interestingly mine isn't PnP. I have to restart or connect it when off. I have the V3.0 of the same TP-Link dongle.
Thanks Buddy, it works

I can’t seem to get the usb hub to work. I can use the keyboard no problem but when I plug in the hub nothing works. Any suggestions
Have you plugged in the hub and keyboard, before powering on the scope?
@@voltlog yes with same results
@@markgreco1962 In that case you need to try with a different usb hub.
@@voltlog I have tried three different hubs. I’m going to ask my friends that may have older computers to loan me one.
@@markgreco1962I see same problem with USB 3.0 hub. But keyboard starts to work with USB 2.0 hub.
Shame it is android...
doesn't matter to the user.. still works and feels the same.
