•Power application improvements
o Switching loss measurement now behaves better around 0 amps. o Inrush current measurement is now more reliable.
oEfficiency measurement
Scaling of waveforms is now optimized, less clipping in some situations.
Added DC to DC, DC to AC, AC, to AC efficiency measurement.
Absolute current is used to give correct result, even if probe is hooked up backwards.
oCurrent Harmonic measurement
Now uses BH window as default, just like the U1881A. o Transient response – triggering is made more flexible
Defects Addressed
•:MEAS:DEF THR, PERCent,95,10,5 no longer given an out of range error.
•Current Harmonic measurement now correct scales grid at decibels to Vrms setting’s change.
Oscilloscope Firmware Version 02.36.2013091300
Release Date: Sept 21, 2013

To upgrade your oscilloscope, download the appropriate .cab file, and load this complete file into the oscilloscope.
Do not “unpack” or “unzip” the .cab upgrade file; you could potentially only load a portion of the required files in the package, and this could result in your oscilloscope becoming non-operational, requiring it to be sent to an Agilent service center to be repaired.
This version of the oscilloscope firmware includes the items below:
Enhancements
For both the 2000X and 3000X families:
•More flexible FPGA programming for the LAN/VGA module.

Enhancements
For both the 2000X and 3000X families:
•Default cursors placement will no longer overlay cursors on the same value. For the 3000X family:
•N2820A high sensitivity 2 channel current probe support has been expanded to allow for a greater range of user defined resistance.
•LIN error triggering has been added.
•WaveGen modulation frequency now has more granularity for user adjustment.
Defects Addressed
For the 2000X and 3000X family:
•Mask “Save on Error” capability now works for SINGLE acquisitions
•Scope will behave better in higher activity LAN networks
•A number of bitmaps behaviors have been improved for some tablets
For the 3000X family:
•LIN 2.0 decoding now better handles the Checksum field.
•An Arb file import error has been addressed; it no longer skips some time column data.
•For I2C decoder search: previously, read packets were sometimes erroneously found during write searches.
Oscilloscope Firmware Version 02.30.2013040901
Release Date: April 12, 2013

This version of the oscilloscope firmware includes the items below:
Defects Addressed
For the 2000X and 3000X family:
•SW upgrade process has been improved to more consistently allow auto reboot without cycling power on the oscilloscope. In previous software revisions, some small set of USB thumb drives used to upgrade the system software prevented the automatic rebooting when the transfer process finished, requiring the users to remove the thumb drive and cycle power.
Oscilloscope Firmware Version 02.30.2013032600
Release Date: April 5, 2013

This version of the oscilloscope firmware includes the items below:
Enhancements
For both the 2000X and 3000X families:
•A multichannel HDF5 file format has been added for export, allowing direct waveform data input into Agilent’s InfiniiView N8900A offline viewer application.
•The dutycycle measurement resolution is improved beyond 0.1%, if measurement data can support more.
•When stopped, roll mode waveforms now expand about the trigger reference point, instead of just the right side of the display.
•Added :TRIGger:LEVel:AUTosetup – This will set the trigger level to the 50% voltage for all displayed analog channels.
For the 2000X family:
•SW option DSOX2MEMUP has been added to allow all channels up to 1 Megabyte of MegaZoom acquisition memory.
•The standard memory has been upgraded to 100 Kilobytes of MegaZoom acquisition memory per channel.
•SW option DSOX2EMBD has been added to support hardware accelerated I2C and SPI serial triggering and analysis, including decode, lister, and search capabilities.
•SW option DSOX2AUTO has been added to support hardware accelerated CAN and
LIN serial triggering and analysis, including decode, lister, and search capabilities.
•SW option DSOX2COMP has been added to support hardware accelerated
RS232/UART serial triggering and analysis, including decode, lister, and search capabilities.
For the 3000X family:
•N2820A high sensitivity 2 channel current probe support has been added. This allows current measurements down to micro amp range while simultaneously viewing the large signal behavior on the second channel of the probe.
•When the WaveGen powers down in arbitrary waveform mode, the arbitrary waveform will persist through the power cycle.
•The ability to reset the measurement statistics from the Quick Action key has been added.
Defects Addressed
For the 2000X and 3000X family:
•Scope labels on the tablet interface now display the correct scope information.
•Overshoot measurement now more consistently chooses the edge closest to the trigger reference.
•Scope no longer erroneously indicates that it will not work with Java 7 ( it does work)
•AutoIP is disabled before user network settings are applied during power-up. It was enabled on previous releases. DHCP has always been disabled before network settings were applied.
For the 3000X family:
•The N2750A family will operate properly when the button is pressed during a probe calibration operation.
