content: I'm probably the only person on the planet that didn't get the word so if this is old news, charge it off to old age.There is an upgrade available (as of 17 July 2017) according to the Siglent Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/siglent.instruments/It links to this .zip file:https://mediacdn.eu/m/media/wysiwyg/siglent/Downloads/Firmware/SDS1000X-E_5.1.3.13.zip22 items have been addressed.ETA: Nuts!

content: I wonder, in theory there would be an update to fix some serial decoding problems.1.3.17R1 was released in November.Now it appears on Siglent's website with a release date of June 29th 2018. What's going on?

content: Nothing other than what's been posted in the SDS1*04X-E thread.Some Decode issues were sorted and further changes suggested. All these should of course be implemented in SDS1202X-E too IMHO. I hope they are and before too much longer.

content: 10XJust update mine too.Self callibration is done, after 40min warming upWorks great!Also, I'm vary happy to see that there is no bug with "probe compensation" when switching levels 1,18V -1,20V. in my scope!I want to ask something strange (for me):Before update:software version: 7.1.3.17R1FPGA ver.2017-11-08hardware ver. 00-02After update:software version: 7.0.1.3.23FPGA ver.2018-08-13hardware ver. 00-02this "0" in new software version is confusing me(p.s. - sorry if there are mistakes -english is not my native)Regards!

content: Quote from: Roger Need on February 13, 2019, 10:27:31 pmI haven't done one for a bit as new units received have the latest FW, but yes only a minute or two and sometimes accompanied with a self boot or two. However I have seen updates fail to take properly at first install and a second installation fixes that.Generally therequiredSelf Cal takes much longer that the firmware update.Updates are something I don't like to hurry or do when we are in storm conditions for fear of a bricked device.However there are recovery files files available now for us dealers to get units up and running again but they arenotfor public distribution.Should a feature not work as it has before or a new feature in the changelog not be added into the UI then running the FW install again IME always fixes it.It gets a little more complex when an OS upgrade is offered in that they are optional but without installing it some new features like the improved Webserver for SDS1004X-E in it's new FW won't be activated.Just follow the FW install instructions given by Siglent and all goes well.

content: Tautech. Thanks for your comments....In the 1.3.23 release notes there was an interesting comment about the operating system files. I have attached a copy as well as the system info from two different scopes (one made in February and updated; the other made in November). I didn't see any change in format from the previous firmware. No OS Version ID...

content: Quote from: Roger Need on February 13, 2019, 10:54:04 pmSo, that confirms my theory. The 5 and 8 are the OS version.What you have there are 2 scopes with different OS'es that are running the same application version. And the .ADS doesn't include the new OS (for now). Until Siglent releases an .ADS with the new OS, you won't see any of the previous equipments upgrade to 8.x.x.x.x.I asked about the possible login as Siglent might have disabled that feature in the new OS.

content: Quote from: tv84 on February 14, 2019, 10:21:45 amThe two scopes with the upgraded firmware have the same user interface and appear identical. What I have not checked is using them remotely (i.e. EasyScope). I wonder if the different OS would have any effect on remote operation. There must be some reason that they updated the OS in later versions...How do you login?

content: Nothing like resurrecting an old thread is there?I've had my SDS1202X-E since April 2018 and totally think it's a good scope. But when I installed the 1.3.26 update it wasn't showing any channel display; all menus and legends were shown correctly, but not a hint of a signal trace. I tried the update again, no joy. Tried downloading again and reinstalling, no joy. So I've been running software version 5.01.3.23, and then I stumbled across this thread. Obviously I'm being a dunce or I'd find others with the same issue, so what is my error?

After then you think something is wrong? Did you follow update instructions inside update package. Beginning of instructions is bolded red colored text with big font size and red color.Now I ask because in your message you did not tell you have done it.How it is, done or not done.If all done as need, then need investigate more. I have updated several SDS1202X-E and never any even minor problem. But I have small suspect that you have jumped over one points and then alarmed just because traces are not visible and get panic...Why you have updated twice. If it tell update 100% and so on... it IS updated and there is not any single reason to do it again. Except if instructions ask to do it twice (rare). It is not lottery generator.Then you have downgraded it back to previous version. What it helps now.Now, update it again to .26 version but now --- BEFORE you do itread update instructions and follow perfectly.Start reading from beginning... and believe this red Note text 2nd sentence there is due to real reason. I know it is boring someone tell RTFM but I have seen it so many times happen... just in this.Instruction sheet is inside update ZIP package where is .ADS and then 2 pdf files.Because least some individual unit can leave traces out from screen... after update but before _. <read this missing word from instruction>.And after it all is finished.If traces are then still unavailable do nothing but ask help how to go forward.Do not downgrade FW again until bit more inspected this. It can not inspect when problem is not on.

content: Quote from: AleXis6 on June 21, 2023, 08:26:18 pmSo you have an offset error of 300 µV. Have you ever checked the spec. sheet? Here's what it says about the offset error:±(1%* Offset+1.5%*8*div+500 uV): ≤1 mv/divSince there are folks who might be confused by more complex error margin specifications like this, let's exercise it step by step:1 % of the offset. You set the offset to zero, so this error component can only be zero as well.1.5 % * 8 * div. This means 1.5 % of the full scale (screen) voltage. At 500 µV/div it is 1.5 % * 8 * 500 µV = 1.5 % * 4 mV = 60 µV. Up to now the observed offset would be too high, but now it comes:+ 500 µV. That makes for a total of 560 µV. What you see is certainly less than that, so your scope is well within spec.These 500 µV are there for a reason. It is not because Siglent is mean and doesn't want their customers to have perfectly zero-aligned traces when offset is set to zero and there is no input signal. It is in the way how the offset compensation works. This is not just a software operation, There is a DAC that produces a voltage that is used to compensate any offset in the frontend, no matter where it comes from. If you feed a signal with a significant DC portion in it (and for some reason you don't want to use AC-coupling), then you might want to eliminate it and the offset can become rather high. In the 500 µV/div range you can compensate up to +/-2 V this way. On the other hand you also want to compensate tiny offset voltages, stemming from imbalances of the input stage of the OP-Amp that handles the LF-path of the split path input buffer.Now it comes: this DAC has a limited resolution. I don't remember the exact numbers, but I assume it is a 12 bit DAC. If that's the case, then one LSB equals 977 µV. This means that the worst case compensation error can be up to +/-490 µV, even for a freshly auto-calibrated scope.Yes, I know. Everybody wants perfection, even from the cheapest entry level product. I am the same, believe me. But there are always compromises. And even when it may look irritating, an offset error of 300 µV won't ruin your measurements for sure!

content: FW 1.3.27 SDS1202X-E Serial decode kaputt!I cannot decode serial data with 1.3.27! backdated 1.3.26 works. Can somebody confirm this please?Setting is UART, 1200 baud 8n1 idle Hi, LSB...1.3.26 decodes all text, 1.3.27 decodes nothing apart from the occasional wrongly decoded character...Or am I just too stupid to get this going?Michael

content: Hi, thanks for the quick response,but I think, I did set the threshold correctly, because I get it working everytime in 1.3.26 but never in 1.3.27.Do you get it to decode serial, uart in 1.3.27? What is the difference in settings btwn 26 and 27 FW?

content: Quote from: DL9HAM on December 29, 2023, 09:33:58 amSame here. Serial decode fails, the freame in the decoder line is longer then the actual length of the UART frame.Downgraded to 1.3.26, it's working.
