Hi Peeps.
Has anyone any idea how to Switch on the SWR measurement function. I have the Umpteen digit Code.............. but I have no idea how to apply it.

I will be eternally grateful.

Gah I hate doing this on Rigol products. Same across all of them. Press the System button. There should be a License or Option Info section in there. Might be in the System Info menu. You will have to poke around and find it. It's not in the same place as in the manual on my DS1054Z and DG1022Z. There's an install button after that. Then you have to enter the code on the main encoder which is horridly difficult.

Google "Riglol" if you don't fancy paying for the rest of the options. That supports the DSA815.

Hi Mr Bungle..... Tried that and no joy.... Sent an email to Rigol... let you know the outcome.
