--- Quote from: KungFuJosh on October 19, 2023, 01:25:08 pm ---Not only that, but consider the fact that the web console on the touch screen scopes is controlling a virtual mouse on the scope's screen. There is no mouse support on the older scopes, so that entire concept immediately fails.

Yes, that's understood.

But... there shouldn't be an excuse for not being able to figure out how to use it via. the web page.

That is typically referred to as a PEBKAC error. 🤷

Only if it doesn't hurt user experience. Which in this case it does.

Because it leads to better user experience.

--- End quote ---
That is irrelevant.


--- Quote from: 2N3055 on October 19, 2023, 09:07:04 am ---How on earth was Siglent supposed to make GUI in Web look similar to and make it drive like a touchscreen scope made 6 years later... By using time machine?.

This is only a matter of software update.


--- Quote from: 2N3055 on October 19, 2023, 09:07:04 am ---When they released that scope it had best Web control on market.
--- End quote ---
Obviously it sucks.


--- Quote from: 2N3055 on October 19, 2023, 09:07:04 am ---Do you propose that Siglent develops completely different web only interface that does not resemble how scope looks to make it pretend it is a touch screen scope made by different manufacturer?
What the heck are you talking about?

--- End quote ---
Now this is pure nonsense. There is no reason why one web interface has to look similar to another one, just that it needs to provide good user experience. It should've been like that in the very beginning, because in 2017 people used the very same controls for web pages that they use today.

I'm not a moderator, but I think the oscilloscope web interface war should be dropped.  Or taken to its own thread.

What it is now is people going back and forth saying the equivalent of "less filling"/"tastes great!".

Please do a  waveform update rate comparison with both, using single/many channels, both with small and max amount of memory depth. Similarly how Perorma01 did it in his in depth review of the 1104x-e just not only with max memory, and also with more than two channels enabled.

Well only if you have the time and motivation, but you were the one who opened tis topic, so I suppose you will not be bored during the next weeks  :).

Interesting would be to know also, whether if you zoom in on the Rigol  on the signal vertically, or have it offset, how it affects the measurements including maybe also math. Like if you use the probes for differential measurements with the math channel, and would like to use it that way, can you use and measure the math channel properly? Zooming in out, triggering etc.

Thanks in advance!

I can give it a shot- do you have a link to the post you mentioned? I tried searching for "Perorma01" and couldn't find anything. Just coming back to this thread at the end of the workweek and noticing it's devolved into hyperfixation on web UI, that was definitely not my intent, just something mentioned offhandedly, since I use the scope hands-on most of the time. There are more significant functional differences I'm surprised no one asked about like how segmented memory is handled in each scope, etc.
