Scoposcopy: Rigol DS1054Z Freeze On Start, Stock- No Options Installed

Just one more demonstration of the Freeze Bug causing a Locked Scope on Start-Up. No Options installed, stock 50 MHz bandwidth scope, running Firmware 04.03, board 0.1.1. No signals applied but all four channels turned on.

Out of about 37 DS1054Z scopes that have been tested to my knowledge at this time, at least 19 have the basic Freeze Bug that happens when you have the four conditions:
1) 1 us/div or faster horizontal timebase
2) Display Persistence set to 100ms or longer
3) “Auto” Memory Depth in Acquire menu
4) Horizontal Delayed (zoom) mode selected

The Bug doesn’t care if you are running 04.02 or 04.03 firmware, or whether or not you have any Options and/or increased bandwidth installed.
