Configurations to help operate your instrument efficiently. Refer to the instrument help for additional configuration information.
Download and install the latest instrument firmware
Installing the latest firmware helps ensure that your instrument has the latest features and is taking the most accurate measurements.
Before you begin
Save any important on-instrument files (waveforms, screen captures, setups, and so on) to a USB drive or network. The installation
process does not remove user-created files, but it is a good idea to back up important files before an update.
Procedure
1. Power on the oscilloscope.
2. Determine the current version of firmware installed on the instrument in the About window under the Help menu
3. Check the version of the latest available firmware at the tek.com/software. Enter the model number of your oscilloscope in the search
box and search for the firmware.
If the firmware version on the web is newer than what is currently installed, update your instrument firmware.
4. Install the firmware on embedded OS instruments.
a) Download the latest firmware and unzip the files on your PC.
b) Copy the designated firmware file into the root folder of a USB flash drive.
c) Insert the USB flash drive into a USB port on your oscilloscope. The instrument automatically recognizes the firmware install file
and starts the installation process.
d) Follow any on-screen instructions. The oscilloscope take about 10 minutes to install the new firmware.
Do not remove the USB flash drive or power off the instrument during this time.
e) After the oscilloscope displays a message that it has completed the upgrade, the scope will reboot automatically.
What to do next
To confirm the firmware update, locate the version number found in the About window under the Help menu. Confirm that the instrument
firmware version number matches the firmware version number that you just installed.
Install option upgrade licenses
Option license upgrades are field-installable licenses that you can purchase after receiving your instrument, to add features to your
oscilloscope. You install option upgrades by installing license files on the oscilloscope. Each option requires a separate license file.
Before you begin
These instructions do not pertain to options that were purchased and pre-installed on your instrument when ordered.
A node-locked license is valid only for the specific model number and serial number of the instrument for which it was purchased; it will not
work on any other instrument. The single license file does not affect options that were factory installed or any other upgrades that you may
have already purchased and installed.
A floating license enables you to install an upgrade options on any equivalent instrument, but only one instrument at a time can use the
license. You must uninstall a floating license from one instrument, and log it back into the Tektronix AMS, before checking it out for use on
another instrument. Access the Tektronix AMS at www.tek.com/products/product-license.
