content: Anyone know where I can download the drivers for the Siglent SDS 1052DL ?I bought one and received it today but the supplied CD is blank. I have contacted seller but still waiting to hear from them. I have downloaded what I thought were the drivers from the Siglent website but Win10 doesn’t recognise it as drivers.Adrian

content: Welcome to the forum.Do you mean DL+ ?What drivers exactly do you seek ?CDs shipped with Siglent scopes generally have manuals, the quick start guide, EasyScopeX and that's about it.You can get all you need here:https://int.siglent.com/download/drivers/?ProId=42

content: Yes I do mean the DL+. I am looking for the USB drivers.I have downloaded the file you linked but Win10 doesnt recognise them as drivers. Not much help from seller either as he linked the Siglent site as well.. I have EasyScopeX installed but is useless without the correct USB drivers.AdrianPS thanks for the welcome and hope to learn a few things

content: Quote from: AdrianFu on June 25, 2020, 10:00:49 amOK, part of installing EasyScope is also installing a NIVISA driver suite and this is mentioned in the EasyScope install instructions.There are various NI packages available but NIVISA Runtime is the smallest and has the USB and LAN connectivity drivers you need for EasyScopeX yet it's still a 74MB download.https://ni-visa-runtime.software.informer.com/download/#If you have issues with connection after installing NI Runtime it maybe because W10 has already assigned default USB drivers to the scopes USB connection. Typically this happens because the driver package wasn't installed before the scope was first plugged into a PC USB port.If you have issues I have a little guide describing how to get Windows to use the correct driver.Post again your success or not and we'll take it from there.

content: Thanks for the link.I am trying to download the file now but its saying 3 hours to go. Our internet is very variable sometimes a 100 Mb file takes 2 mins sometimes 2-3 hours.Will let you know how I go.The CD was blank the dealer I bought if off linked me to a site that supposedly had the drivers for the USB but not..In future I will have to RTFM and MRI.Adrian

content: One more question if I can.I have checked the Firmware version and it indicated I had Version 6.02.01.07 so checked the Siglent wesite to find a newer version 6.02.01.R10 downloaded it and installed. Great it started as normal and when I checked the Sofware version to make sure all OK to find the Oscilliscope now says Product type SDS 1202DL+ not SDS 1052DL+. Would be happy if the CRO is now a 200MHz model.Adrian

content: Quote from: AdrianFu on June 26, 2020, 02:08:08 amIt just might be but I can't find mention that that model ever existed.Just once, when updating FW before dispatch (as I always do) a SDS1102CML+self-upgradedto the 150 MHz model. Rare but it does happen but by virtue of posting about it here there is now a record of this should there be questions asked if you unlikely need to return it for warranty.Enjoy !EditDon't forget to do a Self Cal after any FW updates.Remember also the scope needs be running for some 20+ minutes before you do.
