Option Ordering and Installation
Process

1. According to the usage requirements, please purchase the specified function options from RIGOL

Sales Personnel, and provide the serial number of the instrument that needs to install the option.

2. After receiving the option order, the RIGOL factory will mail the paper software product

entitlement certificate to the address provided in the order.

3. Log in to RIGOL official website for registration. Use the software key and instruments serial

number provided in the entitlement certificate to obtain the option license code and the option

license file.

4. Install the option by running the SCPI command concerning the option installation. You can also

save the option license file to the root directory of the USB storage device. Then insert it to the

instrument. After being recognized, follow the instructions to install the option.

NOTE:
If any problems occur during the option installation process, please contact RIGOL technical team.
