Siglent SDG6000X series 200-500 MHz AWG's
oz2cpu:
Would I buy it again?
YES, i love it..
True there are a few minor bugs, that is a bit frustrating they dont get solved
most of it should be very simple to solve for the sw people involved.
i just learned to work a round the bugs..
again : PLEASE siglent... fix it.. release a new sw for us, we are ready for it
TurboTom:
@fasset - and here you've got it, three individuals, three different attitudes ;).
Point is, if you need the performance, there's no other choice in its price range, and despite its shortcomings otherwise, you will get the job done with it.
After I received two R&S SM300 signal generators (albeit repair jobs) for quite little money, my SDG6000X gets rarely taken off the shelf; the I/Q function may be nice to have but as yet I didn't have to use it for paid jobs. As a "general purpose" AWG I was quite surprised how well instruments form other manufacturers perform that have the touch screen feature integrated in their design right from the start.
In the end, you're the one who knows best what features you need and what amount of "U/I comfort" you expect. So your milage may vary... :-// 8)

I was able to bandwidth upgrade my SDG6022X to SDG6052X using this script
--- Code: ---import hashlib
# Replace this with your SN
SN = 'SDG00000000000'
Model = 'SDG6000X'
otheropt = ('500M' )
hashkey ='5zao9lyua01pp7hjzm3orcq90mds63z6zi5kv7vmv3ih981vlwn06txnjdtas3u2wa8msx61i12ueh14t7kqwsfskg032nhyuy1d9vv2wm925rd18kih9xhkyilobbgy'
def gen(x):
h = hashlib.md5((
hashkey + (Model+'\n').ljust(32, '\x00') +
opt.ljust(5, '\x00') +
2*((SN + '\n').ljust(32, '\x00')) +
'\x00'*16).encode('ascii')
).digest()
key = ''
for b in h:
if (b <= 0x2F or b > 0x39) and (b <= 0x60 or b > 0x7A):
m = b % 0x24
b = m + (0x57 if m > 9 else 0x30)
if b == 0x30: b = 0x32
if b == 0x31: b = 0x33
if b == 0x6c: b = 0x6d
if b == 0x6f: b = 0x70
key += chr(b)
return key.upper()
for opt in otheropt:
print('{:5} {}'.format(opt, gen(SN)))
--- End code ---
However I don't know the SCPI command for the IQ upgrade. Has anyone figured this out?
oz2cpu:
IQ unlock is done via frontpanel manual input

--- Quote from: oz2cpu on February 14, 2022, 12:41:23 pm ---SDG6000 can play back wave files, so far so good
did anyone have a file, for a PAL composite test picture, colorbars, sharpness bars and the whole thing ?
interlaced and all ?
will it be too large/detailed for its wave memory ?
--- End quote ---
No problem, the channel bandwidth for PAL B is 7MHz. 20MS/s Samplerate is sufficent, that will give you a 10s videoclip with the available memory.
