Why?
Because I'm curious to see it working ...

Connectivity and a settings summary is shown in the blank portion on the very top of the display just as it's done with SDS2kX and 1kX+ and the AWG is 'driven' with the option softkeys just like with the mentioned models.

There are default Bode plot values within the scope UI but they can be altered to suit your needs. Eg. different sweep frequencies, Voltage etc.

So for example with SDG2122X 0-120MHz sweep and scope will do automatic switching to get high dynamic range also? No silly limitations, real deal?

You'll have to wait a couple more weeks to see all the detail, but some little overview.

When you setup the swept range, the Bode plot horizontal scaling is adjusted to suit. Start and stop limits can be set. The screenshot in the OP is typical of what you see with the phase shift as the fainter trace.
For a large frequency range, the sweep can take some time to calculate and display all the trace but using the 2 ASIC's (1&3 or 2&4 ch's) speeds things up heaps. Yes you can select the channel the Bode plot is performed on/with.
Much depends on the filter you want to sweep as it will have a target frequency so you might first sweep it over a wide frequency range just to check and then narrow the sweep to what will better suit frequencies of interest.
It can take a while (5s) to get through to 1 MHz then it flies.

TBH I haven't gone looking for max frequencies it can manage as I have only 30 MHz available ATM.

When Dave gets one I imagine he'll have a good look at Bode plots to follow on from a vid he did on them some time back.

Ok thanks, lets wait and see. Some video popped up not sure if it has been around before:



Edit: Can spot some little room for improvement with phase table:
- good practice is to right-align numbers with fix amount of decimal places and keep decimal point at const place, then can move ?Hz to table header
- phase should also have fix no of decimal places, not fix total of no. Currently seems that large phase will have accuracy artificially reduced

All fixed:

Don't get too excited about bode plotting at high frequencies. A real network analyser has the ability to create a reference sweep and go from there for a very good reason!
There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

If I understand correctly this uses 2 channel generator method like I used with my DIY math based bode plotting experiments. Most differences not related to DUT should cancel out.

Yes, one scope channel is indeed the Ref channel and is not displayed at all until you leave Bode plot mode and return to normal scope mode. Ref is Ch2 in the image above.
Unless you have DUT BNC's, you need BNC to test clip leads (one for each side of DUT) and a BNC Tee to split the AWG signal sweep for DUT and scope Bode Ref input.

The second week of November is almost over, so we must be getting close to hearing more. If we're lucky, it might even be later this week :)

i want to see it run oscillofun or beams of light.

that seems like a good way to see how fast it plots in XY mode.

We have now pages without pricing for 100MHz and 200MHz plus all options.
It is not clear yet if the WiFi dongle is included or optional.
We should get pricing and add them to the website hopefully by tomorrow.
Units (on limited availability) hopefully on 1 or 2 weeks.
I try to add as many info we can as quick as possible  :-+

560 euro plus VAT is nearing 700 euro, or maybe over 700 euro delivered. I'm not seeing a DS1054Z killer just yet.

You compare prices with old Riglol DS1054Z and SDS1204X-E.  Do you really think you compare apple with apple.

200MHz vs 50MHz (hacked 100MHz)

500MSa/s all 4 channels on vs 250MSa/s
1GSa/s for two channels vs 500MSa/s for 2 channels on.
real full resolution 500uV/div vs 5mV/div real full resolution
Always background real time running waveform history buffer. vs nothing
Fast sequence acquisition (aka segmented memory acq)  vs some kind of slow frame recorder.
Full speed mask test vs crap slow mask test (with false statistics die to different speed with pass or fail state)
1M FFT  vs  16kt(?) FFT
Much more fast UI
Professional grade Sin(x)x interpolation vs total crap fake Sin(x)/x
True full current memory length and full sample resolution measurements vs measurements from highly decimated display data. (very extremely poor time resolution with slower time bases)

and more...

I drive a LEC (low el. consumption) BEV car. Smoke exhaust pipes - go to museum. In Finland quite all electric power is made using nuclear, wind, solar and water.

Wises must compel the mad barbarians to stop their crimes against humanity. Where have the wises gone?

There will be the 100MHz version too (SDS1104X-E) which will be cheaper.
Tomorrow we will all know pricing  :popcorn:

It's the 100 MHz version and the seller is Siglent USA so maybe they know something the rest of don't.  :-//
Barebones unit with zero options though.
