SIGLENT SDS1102X-C, supported languages issue
rf-loop:

Is there a specific X-C firmware release? If there is, maybe the right thing would be to reflash the X-C firmware, now that we have the .CFG "corrected".
And, as rf-loop hints, you could try measure the max BW/performance the device can get. Because, one thing is certain, the 1202X-C designation is in the original .CFG file so this may indicate (for me, at least) that 200MHz is attainable.

Yes, somehow I think same about 200MHz bandwidth.
But maximum trigger frequency is other case. In SDS1000X-E models trigger re-arm time in sequence mode is down to 2.5 μs (specified 400kwfm/s) and even less (based to my tests).
For SDS1000X-C it is specified for 5 μs.
In normal mode SDS1000X-E have up to 100kwfm/s (specified) continuous average (acquisition is burst type) and up to around 120kwfm/s peak (not specified but mesured).
In normal mode SDS1000X-C have up to 50kwfm/s (specified) continuous average (acquisition is burst type)
And these are easy to measure - if have tools to do it.
Previously I told how to measure sequence mode guaranteed "up to" speed (using 50ns/div)
Normal mode maximum wfm/s speed is much more easy to measure.
Set scope factory defaults. Then just one channel on and horizontal 50ns/div. Display mode dots. No signal to inpu.
Trigger to rising edge and mode Auto and level so that it is away from trace level. Example 1V.
Connect frequency counter to backside TrigOut. Set counter gate time for 1s and counter trig level for reliable trig to these narrow pulses.
Displayed frequency is trigger frequency (1s average) what is also wfm/s
This of course need suitable counter or it can do also with other oscilloscope.
These values can very clearly differentiate X-E and X-C (also there can be other different "speed things"due to possible different brute force in HW)
Othman:
i might try to measure the real BW and wfm update rate once getting the right tools.

Hi, that's awesome stuff. I have the SDS1104X-C and try to get English enabled as well. So far I used the mentioned scripts and telnet to connect to my scope and got the config file. Now my questions are: How do you parse the file and what did you change in order to enable English?
Keep up the great work.
I attached the .cfg file from the Siglent1104X-C.

Go here. And download the C_ENG.cfg and flash/replace it (correct the name).
MichaelEE:
Thank you!
So no difference between SDS1102X-C and 1104X-C?
Edit: I just replaced the file and can change the language. Only the system status screen says: Product type: SDS1102X-C
In the 5 minutes I played around everything seems to be working fine though.
Thank you.
Would be still interesting to know how to do it. I also want to investigate how to enable options.
