New Hantek DSO2X1X models?

[eevbstedt]

They've updated the software and firmware listings again.  They got a rookie working over there?

The firmware matches the 0714 posted previously.
The software matches the 103 posted previously.

Nothing to see here!

Someone could have already published the multi-referenced 1.0.3 because the one just published is still 1.0.1.

It would be nice if you check what you publish before publishing.

I already checked and posted as such but thank you for the valuable information.

I agree as well. This is a great DSO for those of us that are electronic "hobbyists". I purchased my Hantek 2D15 a little over a week ago and I have had only one issue. That being the standard, locks-up if you change adjustments to quickly. BIG DEAL to that, I say! Switch a little more slowly and avoid the lock-ups.
Seems too many guys are picking the Hantek 2X1X DSO's apart and trashing it. If they are that pissed or unhappy with theirs, then RETURN it and buy a Tektrronix! Christ ALMIGHTY!

Patrick, your absolutely right this is great little scope for the monies.
But the lockup is problem for me is big issue as i don't like having to power cycle electronics, too many times stuff has not powered up again. :-(
Dave's reboot fix is a really good contribution and for me pretty much settles this issues, one day when not so busy i'll try the OC as it seems to help to.
As for returning it I tried but post back to Banggood in China was £100 and only paid £175 for it.
Ok they may refund the postage when received and sorted.
But many returns seem to go unclaimed in China customs, hence you are now £300 in the hole and no scope :-)
That said, local Amazon returns seem to result in a better resolution, I guess you save a few bucks here and loses a few there.

I have installed  0630 and then 0705 and after recal i think is unbeatable for the monies, MUCH MORE function than my trusty Tek 2236 :-)
Little is disappointed that 210916 is just a rehash of what we already have, maybe Santa Claus  will bring an all bugs fixed release :-)
Enjoy your DSO2xxxx, imk

Lockups are mostly gone after updating (run 210416 and 210630-auto_update_fpga).
So just update it and stop crying

Don't tell me to stop crying, idiot!
This is about expectation of good reliable quality as you can never know the results of failure.
One project I was involved in years ago was doomed to failure because of it's poor design, I told them not to do it, but was ignored.
The night it failed it almost cost 600 people their lives!

Ask the relatives and loved ones of the NASA Challenger tragedy and Boeing Max 8 flights etc. what they think about poor design and testing

I hope the car you drive has well designed and tested breaks and steering!
Suddenly I have ZERO respect for the words you write and any work you.
Grow and get real Dave.

I see someone can't take mild jokes 
Comparing a cheap DSO (targetted for hobby use) with space/critical care equipment is a bit out of context, isn't it?

The day I see Hantek anywhere in a plane, I'll jump right away. It'll be safer!

Good point David. Bringing NASA into a subject related to Hantek is ludicrous.

Hello Guys,

I just received the DSO2C10 from Banggood. It cost me 180,3USD
FW 3202
Software: 1.0.1.1.0(20210726.00)

I made a backup.
I upgraded to DSO2D15 and et voilá -> the function generator WORKING!!!

Meanwhile I ordered the 3 parts to solder onto the board from Farnell, but they didn't ship it yet, so I cancel the order 

******************
"Yes my DSO2D15 has 1Gsps in single channel mode, Answered my own question.

1) Set Display set to Dots to show sample points
2) Capture Single Sequence at 100ns / Div (Less than this, and it shows vectors instead of dots when you zoom in)
3) Zoom in and check the sample dots at 2ns/div

500Msps has sample period of 2ns  (One dot per Divsion when viewed at 2ns/div)
1Gsps has a sample period of 1ns   (Two dots per division when viewed at 2ns/div)

Must be the ADC08D500 in there."

I still question the ADC model I wrote as a guess. While its the right pinout, feature and value seems to match, and the CIYB that wasn't scratched off on the end of the part number is also a match. But the cost alone for a single chip of this model from any supplier I can find, is generally nearly the same as this whole scope itself. Even that DAC on the wavegen isn't a cheap part on its own, let alone the LCD, FPGA and every other bit in there... Hantek must be nearly giving these things away at a really thin margin. Hopefully they're getting enough to keep working on the software.

Edit: .. Found the chips for <$60 from a supplier in China. Perhaps there is a cheaper clone version out there.

Most likely they buy in bulk and get the parts cheaper then what you found.

For the software they should really consider making it open source and let the community do the development. Cheap for them and good for us.

[DavidAlfa]

Interesting.
If that's really a new sw version, I can extract it from the backup (Use Backup builder) and make a custom update package, stripping your scope unique settings (Serial, calibrations...).

[blackbile]

Yes. That is what I see, but the real data I don't know.

[DavidAlfa]

So what about  sending me the full backup so I can extract the software from it?

Hello Guys,
I recently purchased DSO2D10, device came with this firmware/software factory installed:
Software: 1.0.1.1.0 (20210416.00)
Hardware: 000.000.000.000.000.000.000.001
Firmware: 3200

of course I had problems with constant freezes of the device and I updated it to the latest firmware:
dso3kb_20210630_auto_update_fpga.upk
dso3kb_20210714.upk

After that, the freezes seem to have disappeared, but I got a problem with the USB ports
Rear USB port activity icon is constantly displayed, and the front USB port is blocked when the device is turned on with the message "Front panel USB lock"
I found out that if I click "Update firmware" without doing the actual update, the front USB will be unlocked, but to do this every time you turn on the device is some kind of stupidity and an obvious bug
I described this situation to Hantek support and they sent me a new firmware: dso3kb_20210816.upk, after the update, software version became 1.0.1.1.0 (20210814.00)
But this firmware did not solve the problems with the USB ports, just the message "Front panel USB lock" disappeared , but the problem itself did not disappear, fantastic bug fixing from Hantek
After contacting the support again and asking them to pay attention to their bug, I received an excellent answer "Regarding the USB ports on the front panel and the rear panel you mentioned, it is normal. We will better improve the function." 
Has anyone encountered a similar problem with ports and can suggest a solution? Unlike Hantek, I do not think that this is normal, although, to be honest, this is a small problem, compared to the rest of Hantek's bugs

[DavidAlfa]

For the USB bug, use 20210416.
Or go to System menu and hit Update few times.
Can you send me the update?

[hcp]

unfortunately if I use 20210416, sometimes I get freezes in "Auto Set" mode, and the new firmware solves this, so I'll have to use the hack with hiting Update
of course I can send an update, sent pm about this

[DavidAlfa]

Thanks. Had a quick look.
Interesting: Pcb=003.002.001.000.000.000.000.000
Never seen that on this models.

I guess you have two calibration entries in utility menu: offset and amplitude. Is it so?
This is a known problem. You'll get usually two Calibration entries after using a platform-tools. Sometimes you could get this from Hantek. The last is your case - you've got this from Hantek.
Solution. You need the full backup upk-file from someone who has only one calibration entry in utility menu: offset and the same FW - 3200. I have such backup upk-file but with FW - b000.

Many thanks 
Yes, you're right, I have two Calibration entries in utility menu and I've got this from Hantek.
I will try to apply your solution, but I need full backup upk-file from someone who has only one calibration entry in utility menu: offset and the same FW - 3200
Guys, can someone send me such backup? 

[DavidAlfa]

Has anyone encountered a similar problem with ports and can suggest a solution?

The rule of thumb here is: USB will fail if using software made for FW3200 in a FW3000 oscilloscope, and the other way around, also calibration will fail if using the wrong FW for your scope.

Interesting update! USB works great in FW3000/FW3102 and 20210814 software!
Given your's is a FW3200, ensure you have updated to 3202, then try 20210726 I've just extracted and uploaded, which breaks USB for me(mine is FW3000), so it should work for you .

As usual, the files are available in my Google Drive "Firmware/Firmware updates" folder.


Updated the FAQ, enhancing the format, including recent updates, compatibility details and few quick references.

[DavidAlfa]

Calibration worked flawlessly in my Fw3000 (Fw3102) and 20210814. DC offsets are spot-on in any voltage range.
The interface seems smoother and more responsive, the wave Y position doesn't move at 2FPS in some timebase settings like it did before.
GND coupling still has usual negative offset problem.

I have FW3202 and tried 20210726, but unfortunately it didn’t solve the problem with USB 
by the way, on my FW3202 and 20210814 the calibration didn't break, everything works well, I don't see any new problems yet, except for USB
USB only works properly with 20210416

[hcp]

blackbile has the FW 3200. His full update upk-file you can download from David Disk as zip-file. The only thing you need is a password for this zip-file. Ask him to tell you the password and you can try to solve the problem with USB. Don't forget to make a full backup before you change anything.

Thanks! will do it.

[DavidAlfa]

New mod available, "USB fix".
I made a very small script that polls the pin which detects the presence of external power at the rear port.
Once a second, it checks the value and switches the controller between host and peripheral modes.
Of course, it takes care of the signal, ensuring it's not a noise.
For me, it works great. No issues so far. Like it should have been for all this time.

No longer needed. Uninstall the mod and check this.
