6. When the procedure has completed restart the
scope.
Note
For the GDS-3000 models:
Steps 7 & 8 only apply to 5GSa/s models (GDS-
3154, GDS-3254, GDS-3352/4).
2.5GSa/s models (GDS-3152 & GDS-3252) will
bypass these two steps.
Upgrade Kernel
7. When the screen goes “blank”
during the booting process, press
the lit CH1 key three times. (For
GDS-3154, GDS-3254, GDS-
3352/4 , 5GSa/s models only)

8. The scope will return to the main screen after
the CH1 key has been pressed. (For GDS-3154,
GDS-3254, GDS-3352/4 , 5GSa/s models only)
9. Repeat steps 3~6 to upgrade the kernel. The
same file is used again to upgrade the kernel.
10. When the calibration message appears for the
second time after the oscilloscope has restarted,
press “TEST” in order to perform the phase
calibration officially. (For GDS-3154, GDS-3254,
GDS-3352/4 , 5GSa/s models only)
Please note that the entire phase calibration may
take about 10 minutes.
11. The upgrade procedure is complete after the
second upgrade.

Note
The following note is for the GDS-3000
only.
If the existing firmware version is earlier
than v1.07, please repeat this firmware
upgrade procedure twice.
For firmware versions earlier than v1.07
(v1.00~v1.06), please upgrade both the DSO
firmware and the OS kernel (follow the operation
steps 1 to 10). This means that you need to do the
same upgrade procedure twice .
If upgrading the firmware from V1.07 to v1.08 or
later, only update the firmware. The kernel
upgrade is not required (follow operation steps 1
to 6).
If the upgrade procedure crashes and freezes
during the upgrade, please use the “safe mode”
upgrade method instead. Please see the next
chapter on details on how to use the “safe mode”
upgrade method.

SAFE MODE UPGRADE
PROCEDURE
Note
If the upgrade procedure crashes and freezes
during the upgrade, you use the “safe mode”
upgrade method instead.
The upgrade file name for this method are either
xxx.opg(for GDS-3000 150-350 ) or xxx.upg
(for GDS-1000B, 2000A, 2000E, GDS-3000 500 )
Upgrade firmware
by safe mode
1. Remove all the files on the USB flash disk.
2. Copy the firmware file xxx.opg or xxx.upg
into the USB flash disk (root directory only).
Insert the USB flash disk into the front panel
USB slot.

3. Power up the oscilloscope and at the same time,
keep rotating the “VARIABLE” knob a number of
times until the oscilloscope boots into the
firmware upgrade safe mode, as shown in the
snapshot below.
4. When the xxx.opg or xxx.upg file on USB
flash disk has been recognized by oscilloscope, the
message “usb device ready” will appear on the
lower left corner.
5. Press the F1 key. The oscilloscope will
automatically start upgrading the firmware.
When the status indicator at the center of the
display has completed, the upgrade grade
procedure (using the safe mode) is complete.

6. The oscilloscope will restart automatically.
After the scope has restarted, check the
firmware version by pressing “Utility”à
“System”à “System Info”. The system
information screen should now show the new
firmware version that was updated.
