ATTEN scope conversion to SIGLENT scope or vice-versa (WORK IN PROGRESS)- Have you ever tried to convert you (old) Atten in a Siglent or tried to rollback the conversion and were unable?
- Atten FW is nonexistent?
- Flashed a 7" screen FW in a 5" scope?
- etc.
I'm creating this topic to
aggregate all the problems that people still have from trying these types of conversions.
I think many of the existing problems could be solved if people concentrate the knowledge in one topic only.
I'll try to attach here the files that I've collected or handcrafted in order to solve people's problems.
If you have any flash dumps, please pm me because I can extract the FW from it and recreate an .ADS file that can be used by everybody.
Relevant files attached:- ATTEN_ADS1000CAL_3.01.01.31R16_ProdId_79_ISP - allows the flashing of Atten CAL FW in a Siglent CNL/CML. It solves the problem of "Product type does not match!" error.
- ATTEN_ADS1102C_V100R002B07D02P10R5_2.07.02.10R5 - the only file for a 5" scope that I know. If anyone tests it, please report. For those who accidentally flashed a 7" image...
- ATTEN_ADS1102C_2.07.02.10R5_ProdId_79_ISP - the previous file, patched to allow it to be used over a Siglent FW. BEWARE, it should not be used on a CM model.
Other infos:Here (needing some update...)
Instructions:Please report all successful cases below, so that others know what was the problem/solution.
*** WARNING ***If you grab some flash dump (from another guy) and want to program your flash (with an external programmer)
YOU MUST do a backup of your flash previously (better do it more that once and recheck if there are no errors). Because, if there is any problem following the new flashing, you won't be able to recover your
CPLD/FPGA programming and the calibration without that backup. The .ADS files don't have the CPLD/FPGA programming information!
