Adding the possibility for the people who want or require it for XYZ reason doesn't take anything away from other users. It's just an option, an option..... Hell, just put RGB LEDs next to the ports... --- End quote --- Doesn’t work like that. You can buy it not. If you buy it you have to drink whatever excrement the manufacturer served. As for RGB LEDs that’s fine until you have the probe tips ringed and need an LED at that end too… --- End quote --- Actually once you've got enough probes on the table it would be quite useful to have an LED near the probe tip that you could light up to find out which probe's where. --- End quote --- Yep, probe ID might be needed with our new 8ch monster especially when these can be daisy chained together for up to 512 channels ! :scared: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/siglent-sds6000l-2ghz-12bit-8-ch-(china-only)/ Custom trace colors will be no problem though as this feature is already present in a few Siglent models although another concern is does the palette have 512 colors to have one for every channel trace ? :-// --- End quote --- A quick play with the new flagship just to check it was all working like lesser models do. 512 visually different traces will prove to be a challenge though. --- End quote --- Was wondering what this scope daisy chaining was all about, so had a quick look at your link... OK I understand better now, makes more sense... it's not bench scopes being linked together, just front ends reporting to a computer for display there. SO just one screen, the computer. Well I think colours only makes snes/work if there are only a handful / small number of them, so that the brain can easily/quickly, and reliably tell them apart. To me even 8 is starting to get a bit messy, so 512 oh my god... simply useless. So I guess if I were wirting the S/W of this PC based scope, I would combine colours and nubmers, or labels. Use a handful of colours to create groups of traces related to each other, that make sense to the user, whatever that maybe. Then for each colour, just number the traces, and if the user wants to boher/take the time, let him replace the number by a user created label that makes it more explicit. Something like that.... but it's never gonna be easy for the user no matter what. 512 is just ... hopefully just for marketing / bragging / dick contest, but no real world user will actually ever want to use that many channels at the same time :scared: --- End quote --- Equipment like this is targeted at production and while you are unlikely to ever need so many channels it's available as the theoretical limit. Traces we can also name and chose to make that name visible or not or the channel visible or not which provides for a heap of flexibility when you need a reference channel connected but not necessarily displayed. I believe the programming and remote control of these is to be their big strength and we had some interest in this currently unreleased product range at EMEX from a big multinational manufacturer. Until we get one to play with their real capabilities is just conjecture however I see these being controlled from their webservers and maybe even a group of them as/like a single multichannel unit. Quite keen to get my hands on one...... |

I love my crocs just testing it at work... nothing stellar, it just gets the job done, somehow... And it is small.... I like it... |

My mini-vacation (holiday) a few weeks ago was so enjoyable that tomorrow (Wednesday) morning I'll be heading out on another one. This one will be longer than the previous and again....the location be known only to me. ;) I probably won't be back on the blog until at least Saturday or Sunday. So obviously that will put me at least 10 pages or possibly more behind. Now I could follow the blog on my phone but I have no intention of doing so. If you are gonna get away....then get away. ;D So if there is something specific for me it will have to wait until I return or send me a PM. Does this trip involve a female? No comment. Decadent activities? No comment. Illegal activities? Why yes, at one time one was but no longer. No further clues. >:D I just know you all be jealous. :P :P :-DD |

--- Quote from: duckduck on June 28, 2022, 07:47:48 pm ---Zucca, you called it. That was about the dumbest fix of all time. Monkey look at PCB, monkey see two burned-up-looking components, monkey order replacement components from Digi-Key, monkey replace components. I think a NASA soldering inspector would just shake his head, but at the end of the day I'm happy. Not too bad for USD66 plus USD12 in components (I bought extras in case I sneezed). --- End quote --- Ah ahh... so cooool. Nice! I am so happy for you. Now all you have to do it sending it out for calibration, and there you go a 6.5 reference meter for your lab! :-+ :-+ |
