YEAH, the 2nd Micsig is here and is running behind me for ~1h. Some differences from the first, such as a DC offset of 1-4 mV on all channels (open input noise signal misses zero on both DC and AC couplings, maybe a self-calibration can help) - something I don't remember - the screenshots from the first show an offset of <1mV on only one channel). This is not something that makes me nervous, as it got less over time and is now <1mV (to check, just press the trigger button and watch the trigger level set). At first glance, the measurement accuracy is the same or even better.
And: the fan runs continuously and seems louder to me, but still very healthy. The noise of the first one was definitely lower than that of my souped-up old oscilloscope, this one is more of the same. Maybe it's the battery charge now, we'll see. Or maybe a very specific internal overheating caused the first scope to crash when the fan stopped working (as it did often)?
Nevertheless: it runs as it should: stable and good
.
No, this time I did not update the "Sys Update" app on the market, nor the Scope itself. Only the FTP server had to be installed. Wifi has the exclamation mark (!) on, but works fine. Reconnect is not yet tested.
What is important for this thread:
- the "About" screen is - as Fungus said - 100% the same, including the respective version numbers.
- the "Oscilloscope" app version is 1.0.108 - the same! (Settings > Apps > slide to "all", or tap and hold the app icon and drag it to the top of the screen (i) )
-
opening the AppMarket, the app version "Smart Oscilloscope" is 1.0.108 - not 1.0.4, as with my first Micsig and Fungus'.
AFAIK it's a pretty big step from version 1.0.4 to 1.0.108, so why the store did offer that?
