I just bought a new Rig
I use the power adaptor provided in the accessories box and I connect it to the AC power source (220 V, 50 Hz ).
Yeh, that’s confusing: the referenced PSU has a circular connector according to the datasheet, but the text with that message implies it has USB-C and same poster’s picture of the back of his scope shows a USB-C socket.
I would not recommend any reset or any similar operation.
If the instrument is under the warranty, the only proper way is to contact the vendor and ask for exchange for working instrument or money back.
PavelKCZ You are right , the cost of purchase, shipping and taxes was exorbitant, about $500.
I ask for why this pin is exist although that the USb type C is the same for two directions
Definitely.
You can try to repair an used instrument which you bought on E-Bay for example.
I did this myself, last time it was an Agilent 53132A frequency counter which I bought from China. The instrument comes, but after power up, the panel was dead. I opened it and I found that the flat cable between panel and main board was unconnected. I reconnect the cable and the instrument started without any problem. But it was a used instrument, without the warranty.
In your case, you have a new instrument under warranty, so go and require the exchange or money back. 500 USD is not a small sum.
That's actually low-cost. It costs a bit more than that in Europe. You could have bought it from an official Rigol distributor from (say) Europe, and got it shipped to you, I suspect for about $600-$650 including shipping, if you were OK to pay import duty on it when it arrived to you.
I know that doesn't help now, but for future test equipment purchases above (say) a couple of hundred $, it might be safer to pay the extra amount to buy from an official distributor. But even with a distributor, you'd still likely have to swallow any shipping charges if things go wrong and you need a warranty repair.
Yes, this device is under warranty in China for three years, but it does not have a warranty in Egypt.
I must admit that I do not know how the customer protection laws works in Egypt, but I am almost sure that if you will contact the China vendor and ask for exchange or money back, they will arrange for equipment exchange.
