Chinese handheld scopemeter, 2 inputs 60MHz & DMM 6000 pts

Bought on this French e-shop (see also their blog)

Internal data:

• Module DSO1060
• Serial No. DSO0000855
• Firmware Version: 1.68
• Hardware version: 5.2.34.0.0

Other devices of the same serie: DSO1200, DSO1600, DSO1600H

USB memory stick

The device is USB-host capable but I had many troubles to get him accessing properly a memory stick.
On a 6Gb harddrive it hung when I tried to write a file, and on a 256Mb flash it was always claiming "Unknown Filesystem".
I finally managed to get it working by reformatting the 256Mb flash as FAT32 (FAT16 failed, or was it FAT12?)

Firmware upgrade

Once you have a working USB stick with FAT32 you can try upgrading the firmware.
I found the firmware version 1.70 here, follow simply the included pdf (the Chinese version is here).
If there is a newer version it should come via the same link I guess...

Note that there are also instructions in French here which confirm you need a FAT32 filesystem.

Issues

A known issue is in continuity test mode, it's rather slow to beep, which makes it much less usable than a cheap continuity tester...
Upgrade to v1.70 didn't improve the situation

Another issue: DON'T use both USB ports simultaneously (PC connection & flash memory), see notes in French here

Under Linux

When connecting the scopemeter via USB it gives: idVendor=4348, idProduct=5537, Product: DSO10, Manufacturer: Hantek

There are several projects linked to Hantek products

OpenHantek: FAIL

To compile v0.1.0 I had to install libqt4-dev and libfftw3-dev

qmake && make && make install

To compile dsoextractfw, I had to install libbfd-dev (which actually installed binutils-dev)

./configure && make

It asks for the DSO*.SYS from the Windows drivers but actually it's only for models DSO2090, DSO2100, DSO2150, DSO2250, DSO5200, DSO520A

I also tried from SVN, had to install libusb-1.0-0-dev but resulting binary segfaults most of the time and there is no change for dsoextractfw

HantekDSO: FAIL

To compile v0.5.3 I had to install also kdelibs-dev and automake1.10
dsoextractfw seems to be more or less the same as for OpenHantek, same models supported

Oscope2100: FAIL

It relies on HantekDSO dsoextractfw and is only for model DSO2100

DSO DevKit from elec3i

Contains amongst others a linux branch

There is a test application and a linux driver.
Not tested yet.
From what I can see in the driver there is nothing unusual so it should be possible to get the device working not with the driver but directly with libusb.
