Siglent SDL 1020X-E Bricked
« on: August 19, 2024, 12:06:40 pm »
Hi there

Need help to ressurect my dummyload. Had a bunch of 12V AGM batteries i needed to test the capasity on. But my Dummyload had issues startet to hang in voltage and not stopping on the desired voltage. when removing the leads. the voltage stayed the same. On whic ever voltage it freezed on.
I desided to opgrade the firmware, as it was on the original firmware 1.1.1.19R1 to 1.1.1.21 Downloaded at Siglent.eu
I put the firmware on a 16GB kingston stik, and the unit freezen when i insertet the usb drive. After i rebootet the device it beeped on startup giving a fail on LOAD and Fail on ADC but firmware pass. Was not able to use the 16Gb stick so i tryed on a 3GB kingston stick formattet as per siglents recomendations.
i was able to acces the stick and upgrade firmware, but it failed on second pass upgrading host, or something. don´t remember.
Now when powering up, there is no picture on the screen, but light in the rj45 port and nothing else?

Hope sincerely there is a fix to this problem.

Kind Regards

Kenni

Welcome to the forum.

1.21 is not the most recent firmware and Siglent.eu is a reseller, not EU headquarters.
