Rigol VS5202
Fully drivable by open code over the stock firmware.
Measurement acquisition via libsigrok's rigol-ds driver (oscilloscope). Features depend on the model, firmware and libsigrok version; this is not an OpenDeviceDB hardware test.
Get started
One known way to put open firmware or software on this device, easiest first. Each one links to the project's own instructions.
- Back up your data and settings (and the stock firmware, when the guide says how).
- Check the exact model, hardware revision and firmware version against the guide: a close model may not work.
- Charge the battery or use a stable power supply; do not unplug during the install.
Use sigrok (nothing is flashed)

- Firmware
- Upstream profile: 2 analog channels; digital acquisition not enabled in this driver. Check the model's supported acquisition modes and connection in the upstream documentation.
Install a libsigrok version containing this model and its required dependencies. Use sigrok-cli or a frontend appropriate to the instrument (PulseView is for logic/oscilloscope acquisition). Consult README.devices and the driver source for model-specific setup.

What "still non-free" and "cloud" mean
What "still non-free" and "cloud" meanWhat stays proprietary or depends on the vendor's cloud once the project is in use, from the project's own documentation.

Verification
Not verified. A "verified on hardware" badge requires a replayable test (hardware-replay) run on a real device with a stated firmware version.
