Bricked Siglent SDG 1032X
Omega Glory:
Okay, with the same setup, I saved the capture in binary format on the scope, but the signal generator stalls at 0% loaded. Rebooting escapes the situation without getting bricked. Maybe I have to have the 1104X-E and not the 1104X-U?
(By the way, this isn't really a problem for me, now that it isn't bricked. I was just trying out the arb features, but my project doesn't rely on it)
tautech:
Try importing the capture into EasyWaveX then exporting it to your arb.
I did this years back for a customer which IIRC had a similar issue as the capture was too long/large.
Once shortened and uploaded we could loop it continuously in the arb.
Omega Glory:
Unfortunately I won't be able to test that as I only have access to an Ubuntu machine and a Mac. However I could try to manually truncate the CSV file on my computer, and then try importing that into the signal generator.
Omega Glory:
Okay, I truncated it to 9998 points by running
--- Code: ---head -n 10000 CSV.csv > new.csv
--- End code ---
on my computer, and then loaded it into the function generator without issue. Granted the resultant waveform didn't look anything like the truncated version, because the original file had 2.80Mpts. Now in the video I linked to above, the guy captures a waveform with 2.80Mpts, and yet his signal generator is able to reproduce it, which suggests to me that the CSV to binary conversion process isn't a simple truncation but rather involves decimation.
I could try downgrading the signal generator's firmware to see if this bug isn't an issue in an earlier version.

Or select a smaller memory depth in the scope before capture and saving then transferring to arb the smaller capture.
