Anyone used glscopeclient to sync Siglent scopes?
(1/1)
Domitronic:

Hello,

has anyone tried to sync 2 Siglent scopes in order to get more than 4 correlated channels? I have seen a video from Andrew Zonenberg where he uses 2 highend scopes from Tek and Lecroy to sync them with his glscopeclient software.



But low end scopes like SDS1104X-E or SDS2104X+ do not have a 10MHz reference input. So they could only use trigger out/in to synchronize. And support for SDS1104X-E seems not be completed yet. Has anyone tried it and got decent results?

tautech:
New professional product to come before years end with 4 or 8 channels and potential to couple multiple units for a max of 512 channels:

Yes, i have seen that. but i assume that its not in the price range i would spend for hobby use. Thats why i'm asking for the low-end devices.
nctnico:
I doubt the trigger output will work as it likely has a lot of jitter. Your best bet is to record the 10MHz reference signal as an extra trace and use that as a time / synchronisation means for the calculation.
nomead:
You can de-skew the signals in software but with very tight time bases it still have some limitations due to the inherent trigger jitter.
There was quite fiery debate about usefulness of 10 MHz input in the SDS6000A thread.
