If you don't know your scope's IP address, you can find out by doing the following: To test out that you can connect to your scope, try the IP address 192.168.1.102 (or 192.168.0.102).

You can visit the following website in order to generate your own software upgrade key. This is where the Riglol key generation utility comes in.

If you are a frequenter of the EEVBlog Forum, you will no doubt have come across the multitude of posts talking about hacking the software features to unlock all of the options of the most expensive counterparts.
The primary difference between the scopes is the installed or upgraded software features which unlock the higher bandwidth and many software options such as I2C, Serial Decoding, Advanced Triggering, Memory Options and etc. What many people might not know however is that it shares much of the same hardware as the more powerful DS1074Z and DS1104Z (the 75 MHz & 100 MHz variants). The signal curves, the FFT display, and other functions can be shown simultaneously on the display. Thanks to an intelligent system for displaying or masking information, the largest possible area is always available for displaying signals. The particularly large TFT color displays are very easy to read. It features a real-time sample rate of up to 1 GSa/s and a bandwidth of 50 MHz. The Rigol DS1054Z is a very popular, entry level 4-channel Digital Storage Oscilloscope.
