content: Not unless you modify the probe's power supply(it wants 4V if I recall correctly and the 6000-series has the new interface that can only provide 5V)

content: Quote from: BravoV on February 25, 2018, 12:01:27 pmI shall install a VM to use an outdated browser to use a oscilloscope via LAN? Really?Well, sounds a little bit to complicated for me... (I tried but... no luck as I had no older java and to register at oracle just to download an older... no)The guy who found an easier way or I will post a how too in the next days :-)michael

content: Quote from: mk_ on February 25, 2018, 01:06:38 pmjust register on Oracle's website with a throwaway email, download the older java and modify the security settings like you would for any other popup/trusted site.Once that's done it's really not so much of a problem, and I even just placed a shortcut on the desktop to go straight to the vnc session:Code:"%ProgramFiles%\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" "http://192.168.1.203/remoteFrontPanel.html"I'm sure there are other solutions but this one worked for me (the PI thing sounds cool, the scope has USB too so I see no reason why it shouldn't be possible to write some small program that replaces the missing front panel)

content: Quote from: mk_ on February 25, 2018, 01:06:38 pmIt sounds complicated, but if you have any experience with VMs it's really not. Having a perfectly controlled and isolated environment to run outdated software, which can be modularly added or removed is pretty much ideal. With some care you can do things that would normally be quite risky without consequences for the rest of your infrastructure.
