SIGLENT SDS1102X-C, supported languages issue

(1/15) > >>

Othman:
hi everyone
i just have got a new siglent scope from China wich is SDS 1102X-C. this model is 100MHz bandwidth and 1GSa/s.  i just found that this model is for Chinese market only and does not support any languages except Chinese. unfortuantly i can't read chinese and don't want to learn it.
i'm wondering if updating the firmware to the SDS 1202x-E firmware would solve this issue.. i have checked the hardware of this scope with Dave's video here:
i found that the hardware of this scope and the SDS1202X-E is identical except some changes in the analog front end section.
what would you advise me guys?

Welcome to the forum.

Unfortunately you didn’t do your homework before buying this China Only version of the 2ch X-E.
If you get to find or build a cfg file to allow conversion to a X-E you might have the 2nd 100 MHz unit in the west next to the one Dave has that Siglent sent him for review before release.
When they saw him examine the file system with a view to hack it Siglent countered and only released the 200 MHz SDS1202X-E to the west.

Your X-C model is very likely identical HW to that in X-E models.

thnaks tautech for your reply
so updating the software could not solve this problem? what would you advise me for getting the CFG file, forgive my silly knowledge about this issue.

CFG files when run open the instruments OS to accept significant OS changes from firmware like for a significant update or different branding than OEM....or a language change.
I looked quickly through my SDS1202X-E updates for a CFG file but I don't have all versions on this PC.
I also had a quick search here on the forum and again I don't seem to remember a CFG for SDS1202X-E however there may have been one but I can't remember.
You could check all the 2ch SDS1202X-E firmware versions here:

Sorry that is a bit of work or have a look here as this thread is a little goldmine of goodies:

@tautech,

Search the .cfg file inside your X-E and share it here.
