Documentation

I keep my documentation for this equipment here:

• /home/jj5/electronics/equipment/scope-Rigol-MSO5000/

Access

The scope is available on my LAN here: http://rigol.jj5.net/

Notes

I did some research before buying.

Information from the manufacturer is here: MSO5000 Series - RIGOL Digital Oscilloscopes

Probes

Passive probes

Note that over here it says "Wherever possible, use the 10:1 setting as this minimises loading on the circuit under test and increases the overload protection should you accidentally connect to a high voltage."

Logic probe

Note that the logic probes that sell with the kit are very expensive. In the range of AU$450. You can get knock off logic probes such as this and this for much less.
