Unfortunately you can't recruit cats on their engineering skills, you just get what you get. I don't want to try then fire 25 cats until I find the right one, so I just don't have one. But lucky you for having this one, you scored big time !  :-+

Gilmore is quite the character.  He’s one of seven that currently reside here.      (Shame he wasn’t doing this when things were turned on…)   -Pat

If I don't RTFM, how will I know when it joins SkyNet and becomes sentient...?

It can already beat me at chess; this is just basic self-preservation... :-DD

Not women... I prefer one woman. Who puts this thing to shame; she can suck a golf-ball through 10 feet of garden hose. >:D

But this was mostly just me being a tool-dwagon; letting my friends over here in the States know so they can try and get one themselves before they're all gone.

AMEN brother on the first statement, epic fail on the second.  No availability at any store near me.  I would have liked one even though I have a big Rigid shop vac.

Sorry... If I'd knowed aboot it sooner, I'd have posted sooner.  :-[

I did also post in the "What Did You Buy Today?" thread in hopes somebody might benefit; guess I need to spam there with my T3DSO2102 now...  :P

The screen is effing huge and scary Hi-Res; feels the same as going to my 1054Zed after using a TDS210 for years.

LOL but these are just 8", you wait until you get in front of the later 10" models with touch and mouse control.

Did you get a A4 paper Cal cert with it ?   FYI the rear case on these was used on the later X-Plus models also.

Looking forward to more of your 1st impressions.....  :popcorn:

LOL... more first impressions? Let's start with the impression the manuals left on my desktop... "WHUMMMMMMP!!!"

Even the PDFs are heavy; 800+ pages between the User and Programming manuals.



Yup, I got the ISO DOC and a Cal Cert; now we know a lot more of this unit's story.

It looks like they obsoleted the 2CH model and now only carry the 4CH model, and these have been languishing in some warehouse since before COVID. I'd guess the "two weeks to build the unit" is more like "we need to open up these NOS units and do at least a quick hands-on to make sure they're not made of fire after sitting in a warehouse for 4 years"...  :o

Before I do anything else with it, I need to at least skim the manuals. This thing is smarter than I am.  :-DD

Oh, fuck me... even the Quick Start guide is 44 pages thick...   :wtf:

RTFM, yo.

Did you get real fuckin manuals ?  :-//
The Cal sheet is identical to those that grace real Siglent products.  :)
As I mentioned earlier these, in fact all 2kX models are EOL:
