@Algoma. Did you actually receive the scope from this vendor in the end? I paid about $35 for DHL shipping so don't expect to more on arrival besides local taxes.

Some progress here.
The updater runs as root (which means that it should have full rights on almost everything).
There's a file (/cache/system.inf) which contains the model number (DSO2C10 on mine)

Here's what the file looks like :

Code: [Select]

[machine]
	Model=DSO2C10
	Vendor=undefined
	Product=undefined
	Manufacturer=undefined
	Serial=CN0000000000000
[version]
	Pcb=000.000.000.000.000.000.000.000
	Keyboard=undefined
[language]
	Lans=65535
	Language=2
[add]
	Start=28
	Update=0

Note that this file is updated each time the DSO is booted.
I suspect that 2DXX models have a Pcb=000.000.000.000.000.000.000.001

I dumped the whole firmware but alas, my USB key decided to die before I can copy all the files.

For those interested, here's the mtd mapping :

Code: [Select]

dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00300000 00020000 "boot"
mtd1: 00a00000 00020000 "cache"
mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "dtb"
mtd3: 00600000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd4: 04f00000 00020000 "rootfs"
mtd5: 01c00000 00020000 "data"

I'll try to change the model number on mine this week end.

@xuraax on page 3 I listed the order, shipping and delivery dates of my order. It was generally within a week, actually most of the shipping time was due to delays through Canada Customs in Toronto.

Aliexpress Seller "Hantek Official Store"
Order was on Jan 19 - Their note said restock was on Jan 21, 2021,
Shipped Jan 22 2021 free shipping via DHL to Canada
Received Jan 26, 2021

4 days shipping by DHL (over a weekend). DHL likes to add their Brokerage fee to the taxes. They're like an airline collecting baggage fees that often exceed the original seat price.

@Algoma. I placed my order on the 12th Feb and since I knew this was during the Chinese New Year I did not much mind a certain amount of delay. However, when towards the end of the month I realised they had stock but still had not shipped I brought this to their attention. This is when I received a message with shipping details which was promptly followed by a "retraction" blaming DHL. The Aliexpress web site still shows my order as shipped but the DHL website does not recognise the tracking number the vendor provided.

I am relieved that you finally got yours. At least they are not a total scam. I will give this a few more days and then decide. Thanks for the info.

Algoma · « **Reply #129 on:** March 05, 2021, 09:10:24 pm »

@xuraax If such a shipping issue occurred the sender is responsible to refund you, and open a claim with DHL for THEIR refund of a lost item.

If they've responded via messages in Aliexpress indicating an issue with DHL.. First SCREENSHOT the messages and save for evidence. When expected delivery time expires, immediately open a dispute for refund for item not received. DO NOT close/resolve your dispute, no matter what they ask, beg or plead. You can only ever open a dispute once. Aliexpress will mediate an unresolved dispute and check the tracking. The refund will settle in your favor, provided you give them the screenshots and non-tracking DHL. A vendor will get shutdown if they get too many disputes against them.

Again, DO NOT EVER close your dispute once opened.. ever. or it will auto-settles in the vendor's favor if you are the one to close it. Keep the dispute open, until either they ship you the item, or aliexpress refunds you for non-delivery. The vendor doesn't get paid until you verify receipt, or delivery confirmation time expires.

There are scammy sellers on Aliexpress, especially for high value items.. Check their recent feedback for recent negatives.

@Algoma. thank you for your advise. I am giving them till Tuesday to provide me with a real Tracking number which is recognised by the DHL tracking system. After that I will chase for a refund. Why do they do this?

Mark5 · « **Reply #131 on:** March 06, 2021, 02:10:27 pm »

Done !
100% software solution.

Unfortunately, my 2C10 doesn't have the required hardware for the AWG.

The way it works, it can also repair 2X1X where the serial/model has been wiped after a full restore.

@Vistorik Check your PMs.

Learnelectronics has done a review and teardown of the 2C10:

Anyone who has a DSO1X10 member can 1G sample on a single channel?
If possible, all four models are the same,
and I think the model is divided only by systemware or firmware.
Mine is DSO1C15, but all parts are included
and sampling is shown as 1G for single channel and 500M for dual channel.
I have attached a picture.

Mark5 · « **Reply #135 on:** March 07, 2021, 11:11:46 am »

My 2C10 has 1Gs/s on one channel and 500Ms/s when both channels are activated.

YurkshireLad · « **Reply #136 on:** March 07, 2021, 01:44:55 pm »

The DSO2C10 is only available from China? Will it ever be sold in other regions by distributors?

Mark5, it works. Thanks a lot for idea.

Lucky you. Yours has the components for the AWG.

Mark5 · « **Reply #138 on:** March 11, 2021, 09:45:30 am »

And once again a new firmware for the DSO2X1X range (dated 03/11/2021).

Edit : Hack still perfectly works with this firmware.

Could you plz.. share on how you got it working.. I just got mine today and you like to try to get it working also...

Thx ... /Cheers!!!

I've installed the new 20210311 firmware... has anyone seen a change log? I haven't been able to find anything.

Mark5 · « **Reply #141 on:** March 15, 2021, 12:12:42 pm »

No changelog.
I guess they corrected a few bugs... and introduced some new ones of course.

Piton · « **Reply #142 on:** March 15, 2021, 12:46:13 pm »

From what I noticed, there are almost no freezes in the auto measurements mode. It hung once, when the voltage on the generator reduced to zero. Previously, it was enough to pull out the cord or press a button and there was a hang.

xuraax · « **Reply #143 on:** March 15, 2021, 05:23:29 pm »

@Mark5,

After waiting for a whole month, I have received my scope today. I am pleased with my first impressions but a bit miffed that only one probe is included.
How can I get some info on what hardware is missing and on how to upgrade software and firmware?

Mark5 · « **Reply #144 on:** March 15, 2021, 08:55:37 pm »

Vistorik was kind enough to send me the list of missing components :

DAC : DAC902E
OpAmp : LMH6702
Relay : FD4/4.5-S |428||282| XA0920A

Hope this helps.

Parts cost in the US ~$25 not including Tax & Shipping, doesn't look like it is worth the trouble.

I guess those parts are needed for the AWG and since I have the DSO2C10 I don't have them. At the moment this is not a big loss for me.

However I am interested in upgrading the software. From the Hantek site one can download DSO2000Software.rar as well as dso3kb_202120311.rar. How does each affect the scope and can these be uploaded by just putting them on a USB stick? Also with the scope we get a disc which contains an .exe. I have yet to install this since this is a windows file and I normally use Linux. What is the use for this file? Finally reading back through this thread I understand that changes can be made possibly via a CH340 interface but I could not find proper details on how to go about it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Mark5 · « **Reply #147 on:** March 16, 2021, 03:30:42 pm »

The DSO2000software is, as it's name suggests, a software you have to install on windows that allows you to control the scope from your PC.
The firmware has to be first unrared then put on a USB stick.
You then insert your USB stick in the front USB port and navigate through the scope menu to launch the firmware update.

xuraax · « **Reply #148 on:** March 16, 2021, 06:59:36 pm »

Besides x1, u18 and u35 mentioned above I also note that on my dso2c10, u1 and surrounding components are also missing. Any idea what these parts are for?

Neganur · « **Reply #149 on:** March 16, 2021, 10:07:04 pm »

I don't think so. At least the 1000X series is very clearly Keysight's Infiniivision design, with all it's drawbacks and features.
The Hantek you mention has more memory which I think is impossible with the chip Keysight developed for this line of scope.
A second indicator is in my opinion the sample rate, the 1000X can do 2 GSa/s, Hantek only 1 GSa/s.
Hantek would probably not misss the chance to sell the scope as 200 MHz capable if it could do it.

I think this is just a case of copying the looks. And they'd be silly not to
