Hey guys,
I've just recently got one SDM3045X and although I had no time to test it thoroughly, there are minor issues with it which are annoying a lot:
- blinking (breathing) power led. It is an instant wtf - you just cant do anything at your workplace without disturbing your focus by this tiny led. I will kill the multivibrator in his head but for now the only protection is a small piece of duct tape. What is the reason behind this? Driving the users mad? Luckily it is not beeping continuously at power off.
- the font used on main screen is just partly monospaced: the minus/plus signs has different width. Because of that, when the DUT is not connected, the numbers on the screen is constantly jumping to left and right. Super annoying and it could be resolved easily by using a proper font...
- the plastic horns are upside down comparing to my SDG2042X, therefore it was impossible to stack these on top of each other (I resolved by flipping the horns upside down on SDG2042X, but one of the screw nuts just falled inside the casing.
- the display becomes super slow when the bargraph is on. Sure, it takes some cpu cycles to calculate and show the bargraph, but c'mon...
- you cannot set the display brightness (background lighting)
and I just used it for 5 minutes
