Title: DPO6084B_date & time
Hello everyone. One thing bothers me on the new DPO6084B oscilloscope. Namely, I flashed a new fw with the modification date 2020.06.30, which I downloaded from the Hantek official website. The only thing, for now, that I fail to program is the date and time. Sounds ridiculous, but really, when I change the settings the date is always 2020.01.01. I don't know how to memorize a new date and time. Other settings can be stored in the internal memory and called whenever needed. I tried over the keys and over the touch screen and everything that came to my mind but I failed. there are some non user friendly tables for changing the time and date when working via the touch screen but I doubt that Mr.Spock with his logic would be able to solve this. Does anyone know how to fix this on the new fw?
Thank you in advance

Ok, this is what i did from begining...I have flashed latest firmware from DPO/DSO6004B/C series from product web page because DPO froze once after i received it brand new ten days ago so i thought i need latest firmware. Before latest flashing i was able to change numbers of year,months,days, hour on lower right corner of screen. But now i just cannot find a way to program hour,date to be saved and running. I have tryed everything but at lower right corner of the screen numbers does not change. Always remain at 2000/01/01 and hour and minutes are starting to count from zero after every power up. I can store and recall other setup data in inner memory normaly.

Small update:
DPO came with initial date 2018/01/01 on screen. And I could change actual date anytime. After flashing, it stuck on 2000/01/01 and on touch screen table for changing date and hour - year is starting from 2018. There is no option for year 2000. Year 2000 is visible and starting point only from "utility" & "F" keys Menu.

Maybe the battery is dead, you can try to replace the button battery on the mainboard.

The first firmware was the same? 2.0.0.1. That i remember.
But I could not figure out what is the latest firmware version because it is labeled: "dso6kb_func_200618.upk" and I am not shure that i saw that was same date 200618 on system info before upgrading. Previous firmware started with2018/01/01 date , after upgrade- 2000/01/01 and it stuck.

Replaced CR2032 battery. It was dead, 0.17V only. But again, I cannot adjust date,time, Running time is keept in memory on next power up. I suppose, fw flashing with dead battery caused some mess in flash chip: when i tryed to reflash few times after problem arise, flashing goes until 88% and DPO reboted and worked normaly except date, time problem. I flashed once again with new batery and flashing goes through 57% and then rebooted. DPO is functioning, show elapsed time, but I am unable to change date,time.

To clarify: Minutes running when powered off. So I think internal clock hardware is ok.

You can adjust the date and time, just use the key and V0 knob, or touch the screen(if it is with a touch screen). After adjustment, press return, you will see the date and time are changed as you did.
If you still can’t adjust the date and time, please send me a video to study.

Change the battery inside the oscilloscope. That is the most probable cause and is cheap to fix.
