SPD1168X and SPD1305X Siglent PSU's
BillB:
When I first got the SPD1168X, the older version of EasyPower treated it somewhat like the SPD3303X-E. The newer version added the sense control, disabled the second channel UI, and allowed for the proper current range.
It sure does seem like EasyPower is doing the same thing with your SPD1305X.
IIRC, the beeps mean the power supply received a command it didn't recognize or like; another reason to suspect Easypower is sending it SPD3303X commands.
:(

There is some unsystematic in what Siglent does because the device control software appears much later than the device itself. It should go hand in hand. The more so if the software also has the function of updating the firmware. It remains to wait for the new version.
BillB:
Yes, I think the EasyTools suite, and probably all PC-based control applications,are losing out to built-in webservers. Most of the EasyTools applications look like they haven't been substantially modified in a decade or more.
At least they've done a good job at providing the SCPI interface.

Nope it doesn't ! >:(
--- Quote ---The menu displayed in the GUI is unchanged, you can see both channels. When you give limit on 4A, the current will be set to 3.2 A. Also, 4-wire mode can not be set. What is interesting is whether via LAN or USB connection, makes the SPD1305X 5 beeps. I have no idea what these repeated beep mean.

Yep, all this ^^^
Dunno what Siglent were thinking.........release new firmware and the EasyPower SW that's supposed to work with SPD1305X won't and you can't install any firmware that might fix it ! :wtf: :horse:
Angry email sent to Siglent.
