Siglent SDS2000X Plus

[tautech]

....
Total cost is now no less than the HW and the previous license.....

Hello,

for SDS3000X HD the costs for license and hardware were about 900 €. The hardware now costs around 506 €.

Best regards
egonotto

SPL2016 plus SAG1021I = $ 724 current pricing.

Significant cost reductions for some models come from zero licensing costs which for some models were $ $ more than other models. < This I could never understand.

I've had the finger on the trigger for buying the logic probe for months.
Now I took your warnings
and immediately pulled the trigger for the old price of 379 Euro incl. taxes.

Did you try this DYI 2016?:

All DIY LA probes that have a simple flat cable will work poorly. The probe must be connected to the scope using 50Ohm coaxial cables.
In the thread on DIY SPL2016, all this was discussed and decided a long time ago. There is no point in buying an LA probe like the one from your link.

Does the original probe use such a cable?

[maxspb69]

Yes, exactly. Original SPL2016 cable looks like a simple flat cable, but it is a ribbon of thin coaxial cables.

I've updated my firmware and all went well. I noticed that there's a new serial decode option that was added... ARINC 429. The interesting thing is that I don't see any mention of it in the release notes and I can't seem to find a way to purchase it on Siglent's site other than for the higher end models such as SDS5000X.

Did anyone else also get this ARINC option?

Does anyone know what the 4 character option code is for this mode?

A429

I would like to bring to your attention that the logic pod from HP/Agilent, that is used for DIY siglent probe, is not a coax either. I scored a couple of them during dumpster diving. Some of them had the insulation already broken exposing wires. It is a twisted pair. I can share a picture when I get home on Friday.

It's A429. According to Siglent Enginer, it's an option for ARINC429 decoding, in my firmware it named "ARINC" without 429, but also can unlock by the python file using A429.
