I was missing the "Full" display feature, and discovered my oscilloscope's firmware was outdated. I decided to make a How-To video, since I couldn't find anything specific for this series of Rigol oscilloscopes. I also included video of what happens during a self-cal, so you know what to expect. I hope this helps someone.
Here's a step-by-step video on how to perform the firmware (FW) upgrade. The FW upgrade was easy, but performing the self-calibration was a pain. It took me 4 tries, so if yours fail also, keep performing the self-cal until it passes. You should be able to see what happen through the entire self-calibration, on my 4th try.
Below are some time markers, if you just want to go straight to a particular section:
00:00:34 Downloading the Firmware
00:02:48 Checking your oscilloscope's current firmware version
00:03:04 Upgrading the firmware
00:04:43 Check for new firmware version
00:05:02 1st Calibration try (failed about 8 minutes into the self-cal)
00:06:48 2nd Calibration try (nothing happened for over 30 minutes, so it was cancelled)
00:09:04 3rd Calibration try (the self-cal went farther, this time, but failed 18min into it)
00:12:11 4th and successful calibration try!
