Unless someone does it through the serial terminal...
Best if you just use the Cal kit you have and do the calibration and save it with a name that suits you.
Some tips in the Help file:
VNA>Meas setup>Calibration
Process is:
Select VNA mode.
Enter Calibration.
Select Cal kit>Next
Select User 1 or 2 and follow calibration steps.
Enter File menu.
Set to browse file.
Change View and Save type to Cal.
Press Save on the front panel and use the keypad to name your Calibration.
Example attached.
In use, Correction = ON
Am I correct in assuming that in such case, after the user calibration (OSLT) has been successfully performed, the status in the upper left of the screen would have to change to
Cor (=calibrated)?
Now it shows --- regardless of what I do.
According to the user manual on page 76:
3.5.6 Calibration
Set calibration related items. The calibration status is displayed in the upper left corner of the screen.
The calibration status and display are as follows:
No calibration data --- (displayed in gray)
Calibrated Cor (displayed in blue)
Correction Off Off (displayed in gray)
Need to re-calibrate C? (displayed in blue)
OK now backup script worked for me with another USB stick freshly formated fat32 with gparted and dd for .ADS ccopy..
New telnet script for SVA1000X with latest FW.
TESTED OKPort is 10101.
Edit: Should work with SVA1015X, SVA1032X and SVA1075X.
Yes , it works !!!
So simple...
Siglent changed the ProductID to 11410.
When I shared the NSP_config_upgrade_info.xml file with @nive I noticed the contents but it didn't sink into me. Then when I saw @techneut
msg I had a flashback!
What is most interesting is that now (with V3.2.2.4.0 FW), all the models
SVA1015X, SVA1032X, SVA1075X have the same
ProductID = 11410 !!!
Does that mean we can upgrade them all to 7.5GHz?!? (Who wants to try?)
Does it mean they will differentiate them through other means?!?
One thing is certain, from now on there will be
only one FW package version for release.

Could it be that they made the change in FW V3.2.2.4.0? That somewhere there is a type definition based on the ProductID before the software update and ID change?

Nah, I am sure they have different components, not just the RF circuitry. I think someone did a teardown of the SVA1032X comparing it to the SVA1015X?
Unless they release a new unified hw revision to simplify the supply chain? But I doubt it.

Yep, 3 models in the SVA range each with different specs and even different instrument weights.
While flashing one to another may be possible it certainly won't meet datasheet spec.
Playing with fire certainly.

From now on, there won't be any more "flashing one to another" as the FW will be the same. If the HW allowed it, the only difference would be in a BW license.
If someone has crossflashed before this version though, it will still stick though, right?
Many thanks, tv84
I just tried it on a SVA1015X, all options unlocked. FW 3.2.2.4.0.r2
Ony issue I can see is that there seems to be no spectrum display in RTSA mode? That said it might be operator error. Other modes are working fine.

RTSA is not a SVA option. You see it because you "hacked" it.
New software:
SVA1075X Firmware – V3.2.2.4.0R2 (Release Date 02.08.21 )
SVA1015X Firmware – V3.2.2.4.0R2 (Release Date 02.08.21 )
SVA1000X Firmware RevisionV3.2.2.4.0R2 2021/2/09
Notice:This firmware must be upgraded from V2.1.1.1.12a or later. If your SVA1000X has an earlier version, please update to V2.1.1.1.12a first and then proceed to update to the latest version.
•This version can not be rolled back•
Fix the VNA option license error on some SVA1015X and SVA1075X units
I am deciding between a SSA3021X+ and SVA1015X, and note that from my distributor they are within 100 dollars of each other right now. So the obvious choice is the SVA1015X. Is there any reason to even consider the SSA then? I will be playing around with it in telnet, features and 3G.
I am coming from an SSA3021X (non +), and a sdrkits VNA. I could consolidate to the one device.

1.5 GHz models are a different HW platform and therefore have some different specs.
For SA use you will be giving up some of the TG capability your SSA3021X has.......study the SVA datasheet.
Thanks for the heads up Tautech. I must need to find a better set of pages to look at, because SiglentNA lists tracking generator as standard for the SVA.
I only see that the SSA has a better DANL.
Hi there, any idea why is the dynamic range for S21 measurement 20dB worse for SVA1032X than for SVA1015X? This is rather puzzling, especially since DANL is just a hair better for SVA1032X.

SSA3015X Plus and SVA1015X have a different TG spec to all other models...did you not see that ?
5 MHz minimum TG and for SVA1015X VNA mode has a 10 MHz min frequency limitation whereas for all other models it is 100 KHz for both TG and VNA modes.
This can be a no go for some and not everyone spots it whereas I'd prefer them to all be the same but HW differences don't permit it.
Better you know now and make good choices armed with this knowledge otherwise the instrument might not fully suit your needs.

That's a no-brainer: get the SSA.
