PLA2216(Logic Probes)

The build quality and overall look and feel are great. Large touch screen and so many capabilities you have to pore over the user manual to discover. Inbuilt help and self-calibration are brilliant, as are the connectivity options, including LAN and USB; WiFi would have been nice, but not essential.Upgrading licences for add-on features are expensive but there are ways to enhance the device for tech-savvy users :).

Well made and works as intended. Quality product, I just wish it would have a faster CPU so the info on the screen would refresh a bit faster. Otherwise, it's very good, especially for the price. At work, I use 300k scopes for optical and electrical high-speed design debugging and analysis, this isn't going to address these needs, but for home hobbyists or low-speed to medium design and debugging, this will do very well depending on what license upgrade you get as this scope can be upgraded via a license key. As your needs grow, this scope can keep up to 400MHz. After that, you need to jump into the next class of scopes.

The product photo shows 32 leads. Rigol's manual for this shows that there are 32 of each. I got 20 of each, and the packing slip shows 20 of each. 16 are grounds, so probably not a show-stopper, but these are pretty flimsy, and it's good to have a full complement so that some spares are available. RIGOL suggests using a ground lead twisted for each signal lead where noise is a concern (so that requires 32 leads and 32 grabbers). It comes with 16 lead labels 0-31. and 16 labeled ground (that's 32 label pairs) for 32 leads. Somebody screwed this up.Also, Rigol designed the plastic housing at the scope end of the ribbon cable, so that it tapers away from the scope. It requires more than a little force to plug it and unplug it. Plugging it isn't a challenge, but maintaining your grip on a shiny plastic tapered plug is not so easy while attempting to unplug this from the scope. The little bit of ribbing that it has looks like it should help. It doesn't help. They should've fluted it, and not tapered it. The rest of the instrument's (scope and logic analyzer) implementation reflect a similar pattern of not working things all the way through (though the UI on the scope is not bad, just buggy). So does the fact that the packing list (accurately) lists 20 leads and grabbers, and all of the other materials show 32.I found another logic analyzer for the same price with 32 channels, and really wonderful software called DSView. I bought it, and much prefer it (and it's tiny, comes with a nice case).I've asked RIGOL, and the seller about getting the missing pieces but have been ignored for three days now. They finally sent a FULL set of new ones, which is great.

The scope worked very well including the network accessible features. Build quality of case and button tactile feedback was excellent. It was fast and responsive. The only complaint so far is that the uart decoder would sometimes would glitch showing the decoded values when scrolling the time offset. It would return to proper values as the scroll continued.

Good oscilloscope.

l oscilloscopio e ottimo merita 5 stele e un attrezzo completato bello e prrattico con tante funzioni sollo che le licenze incluse sono a tempo determinato (guardate la foto in allegato) per questo ho mesi una stella , ho contatto RIGOL e mi hanno risposto che sono comprese con BND quindi e un servizio a parte che costa 599€ ora dico io uno che spende 1000€ dovrebbe spendere altri 600€ dopo un certo tempo ?... potrebbe andare bene ... ma avvisami non mi prendere per il c... per ciò lo volevo mandare in dietro ma non lo restituisco perché mi piace tanto ma ho usato metodi ,,alternative '' anche se non sono d'accordo perché io voglio in oggetto che lo pagato con almeno le funzioni principali limitate ,spero che questa recensione sia chiara le licenze a tempo indeterminato dovrebbero essere incluse nel acquisto del apparecchio almeno cosi mi hanno detto prima di acquistarlo si e vero sono incluse ma a tempo limitato !! Sto aspettando ancora le spiegazioni del produttore se sono novità li scrivero
