Hello, this might be a stupid question but, how do you estabilish a connection with the scope? I'm selecting the Siglent driver, and typing the LAN IP:5025, to no avail.
The console says something about the scope answering "welcome to SDS824X HD" after asking for an ID.
I wonder if there's some weird setting on the scope to make it provide a full shell or something rather than just a raw SCPI command interface?
If you connect to the scope on the SCPI port, it should not send anything immediately.
If you then send "*IDN?" it should reply with something like "Siglent Technologies,SDL1020X-E,SDL13GCX6R0651,1.1.1.21R2".
If it sends any kind of command prompt or welcome banner or something that will confuse the driver as it's not supposed to be there. There might be a setting to turn this on/off, not sure.
Hello Andrew. Thank you very much for your help, and for developping the software. I got to know it through the Thunderscope project, which I have been following for a while, and it is truly impressive.
The oscilloscope sends a welcome banner when a Telnet connection is started with Putty, through port 5024. Before any command is sent, it prints:
"Welcome to the SCPI instrument 'Siglent SDS824X HD'"
I managed to get something like "Unknown serial number SDS824XHD" or similar, while alternating connections between Ngscopeclient and Putty, but haven't been able to reproduce it.
Now I only get this (image attached)
I'm already installing Linux, I want to try the AD2 too.
