I have big sympathy for you. All I can do is to assure you that the SDS2000X HD is not forgotten. I should know it, as I've just initiated investigations by Siglent engineers for some bug-fixes (bugs that won't affect the average user). I also know that a lot of the new functionality will be part of the software platform. Once it is declared mature after the release on one device, the others will follow.

It happens all the time: Back in mid 2019, Bode Plot II was first introduced in the low-end SDS1004X-E series, whereas the SDS5000X had to wait.

In general, the SDS2000X HD is mature, so that no quick emergency fixes are required. Consequently, Siglent rather waits a bit longer to release only substantial FW-update if necessary.

I hope they will still solve some bugs. The probe recognition not working is very irritating.

I know they will probably still come around to fix stuff and back port features, but this sentiment is similar with me saying feeling "shafted" in the new 1000X HD and 3000X HD thread.

I understand Siglent does not have massive resources to pump out new software, and I understand the scope is still an unbelievably good deal and device etc. and the 2000X HD was pretty good to start with etc. I do still like my scope, and Siglent in general etc.

But, I do have mixed feelings about my 2000X HD purchase. Since I bought my 2000X HD, they have come out with 3 new HD scopes (800X HD, 1000X HD, 3000X HD), well 4 scopes if you count the 1000X HD black refresh. Yet thus far the 2000X HD has only gotten 1 software update, late last year. Stuff like the hopelessly slow digital channel 12wfm/s refresh rate still isn't fixed, neither are the whole lot of small bugs / missing features mentioned in this thread.

I got my base SDS2000X HD for 23000 RMB, which Siglent has now dropped pricing to 13880 RMB. The base 3000X HD sells at 27800 RMB right now on Taobao. I know I have been using an excellent scope and benefited from it massively between me getting the 2000X HD and today. I bought the 2000X HD and it pretty much did everything it promised (besides the digital channels, I regret buying the official logic probes).

Anyways, I think you can understand where my sentiment is coming from. I feel like the newer 1k, 3k , 800 HD scopes weren't meant to be released in such a rapid pace, until Rigol stepped in and released the DHO4000 and all the other offerings. Siglent had to respond with their own lineup of HD scopes, which is understandable, but it is still frustrating to see all the new features the new scopes are getting, some of which us 2000X HD owners suggested, yet the 2000X HD feels like has been forgotten, at least to me as an end user.

Looked back through your posts some months which didn't reveal any previous mentions of this.
Please tell.

it was some posts from me ...
when you hit the default button, the connected probes does not get recognized.
the original probes are set as 1x instead of 10x
after "default" if you unplug then replug the probe(s) it then get the good 10x

Every Siglent auto probe detect DSO works this way.

Every one I have checked detects 100x probes just fine....although Siglent don't even offer one......
