How would you feel if you purchased this scope a couple of weeks back with options, and discover it is now $1000.. $1500 cheaper ?
Ask my sales rep for the discount
Or make them do a hardware swap
Typically when that situation arises I ask if they're just going to refund me the difference or if I need to return and buy another.
So batronix should give me one by the next buy...
Hello,
what is your experience with Power Analysis with an oscilloscope? Since Siglent has prepared this promotion, I am thinking of purchasing a Power analysis deskew fixture DF2001A. I have current probe. I would like to measure both low power equipment in stand by mode and my own build DC / DC buck- boost power supplies up to 24V / 10 A.
Did someone recently get a SDS2104XP and try to mod it to 500MHz ? Did it work ? Wondering if they still have two HW revisions or not
Wondering if they still have two HW revisions or not
They never had.
So the 100MHz can be upgraded to 500 ? For some reason I thought only the 350MHz could be upgraded to 500
Thanks

IME, yes, but keep in mind that you should make sure it’s sampling at 2GSa/s to avoid significant high frequency aliasing artefacts. You’re limited to two channels to achieve 2GSa/s in the four channel unit.

I have a fresh unit (received: october 20th), I did mode it to 500 MHz, but it worked in steps from 200, 350 to 500 MHz.

Which was already explained in the manual...

Hm ?
he certainly did not do it via SCPI, if you enter the keys via the menu, you have to enter the key from 100 -> 200Mhz, 200->350Mhz and 350-> 500Mhz
I did the upgrade hack via the licence key route. Going from a 2104 to a 2504 means you get to experience three times as much of the thrill of a BW upgrade as you do using the SCPI command method.

What I meant was that the unlock code for 500 MHz BW didn't work from the begining, I had to enter the code for 200 MHz BW, then for 350 MHz BW and, in the end, the code for 500 MHz BW.

Yes normal.
The upgrade path to 500 MHz is only from 350 MHz.
Study the website BW options and this is very clear:
https://www.siglenteu.com/accessory/bandwidth-upgrade-350-to-500-mhz-4-channel-models/100 and 200 MHz to 500 MHz BW upgrade paths do not exist within the Option UI however AFAIK you can go straight to 500 MHz using SCPI commands.
Edit: It seems, that all options are included in this price..
All options but MSO are currently included from Siglent.
Ah,
But in general I find it somekind of "funny", lecroy don´t disguise it that much where it originally came from - Just a sticker..
It's normally on build in generator sqare wave? 10MHz ...

With the probe set to 1X, yes ...
But even with proper probing, it's not going to be much better.
Yep it's not a 10k USD TEK
