content: Hidid you have plugged in a flashdrive? I can't see someone in the Front.Also you have to select where you want to save the screenprint.

content: It says save to <None>, because there's nowhere to save the image to.Either plug in a USB drive, or if you have the LAN module, capture the screen via the Ethernet interface instead.

content: Agilent has both a pdf and an interactive user manual.Most of the answers are in there.These scopes have a lot of features and functions.Until you are use to the scope you will probably have to refer to the manual frequently.

content: By the way, I think that thePrint(marked green) button does not work with USB flash drives. You must configure theQuick Actionbutton instead.

Usually you need to use a decent branded drive of a particular size or with a particular chipset.

I guess can be configured as a quick button, usually I use the network interface anyway and do screenshots on PC anyway.I think the USB drive has to be formatted with FAT32 and maybe it has problems if it is too big, so partition it.

content: Your scope has serial numberSG52160341. Was it made in Singapore?? My DSOX2002A was made in Malaysia, so the serial number is MYXXXXYYYY. When was your scope bought as new?

content: Well, according toAgilent webthere should be a five years factory warranty for scopes sold as new after 1. 1. 2013.But when I put your model and serial number herehttps://service.home.agilent.com/infoline/public/unit-details.aspx?tab=CURRENTSERVICEit says three year warranty. Is your scope a second hand buy?? More infohere.

content: Quote from: Bienieboo on January 12, 2014, 09:47:27 pmWell, write a polite email to your local Agilent distributor and describe the problem. They will probably lengthen the warranty for you and it will be five years then.This happened to me. My scope had 3 years warranty and now it is 5 years. I bought it from Farnell in about April 2013.
