On Sale. Best bang for the buck. Can be easily hacked to 200 MHz. Do not get X-U, half the hardware.
Sydney stock, most probably, mine was.

    next time I want to detect aliens this will come in useful.

    Already have its bigger brother. Only used it to display the signal from its own wave gen. Kinda sad, really. Should I get this one too, so they can play together?

  • Oh wow! That's a great deal, I bought mine 2 years ago for AUD 855 :(
    It's a great oscilloscope! Haven't tried the hack yet though.

  • Lets you put a sign into the garden: New Dave Jones in the making, keeping up with the Jones next door!

    Pros / Cons vs a Rigol 1054z?

  • Anything a little cheaper?

    • Actually for $499 X-U is a good deal too, thanks to @forged

    It's not really a deal, I purchased this last year for $709.50 delivered.

    • +1

      So… you paid more for it…

      • Think of it this way, I paid $22 to use this for 1 year

          How is that relevant at all to somebody who wants to buy one today?

          im really trying to think this way, no luck so far

    • This is $687.50 delivered, what is the point you're trying to make?

      • I'm saying that this price isn't very special considering that electronic devices usually depreciate in value very quickly (10-30% per year).

        • +2

          Usually … 10-30% per year ….

          Homer: Oh, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. 14% of people know that.

  • I'm wanting to decode the, I think, serial communcations from an ePort RF device so I can write more direct code in Ardiuno so I can make it 'smart'. Would this device help me 'read' the commands and triggers of said device so I can emulate it/program it via a D1 Mini (ESP32) device?

    • +1

      there was no manual, hard to see how it operates. For what it worth, I managed to read RF remotes using RTL-SDR USB dongle and program like this. Then you can use RM4 Pro to fire RF at will, using HomeAssistant or the like.

      • I'm not after reading RF codes, they use rolling codes :(, more the signal or direct communications at the RX/TX and/or input points. Currently I'm using the D1 Mini to 'emulate' the button press (trigger an 'on' signal) directly to soildered wires.

        • +2

          Maybe it'll help you in future, when asking, add what device, what chip is talking to what device / chip over what. There is a great nerd place for asking this - https://www.eevblog.com/forum/

    • +1

      Yes, the oscilloscope can decode serial communications, but doing this would be quite complicated. Instead I would consider re wiring the physical buttons on the device to a relay which you can control using the arduino.

      • This is my current solution, where I wire directly into the button input circuits and 'emulate' a button press via the Arduino. Ultimately I'd have liked to rework and soldier the ESP32 directly to the board, power it and emulate the 'RF' or other comms.

  • Combine this purchase with 2 x https://www.target.com.au/p/braun-texstyle-5-steam-iron-si5-…
    Home defibrillator setup for under $1k.

  • I have one of these which I grabbed about a year ago. I LOVE it. I would call myself a prosumer. I work with people who use Tektronix etc., but use this at home for my DIY projects etc. I don't really have a strong view on price, nor how it compares to the current models in other brands, but I really don't have any complaint at all.
    It can work over ethernet if I need to display on big screen, but don't need to.
    Lots of cool things that this can do, like decoding various protocols including CAN etc.
    The logic analyser extender you can buy for it is WAY overpriced.
    Cheers

  • I was tempted to pull the trigger but decided to go with the Owon SDS1102 from feebay+ for $265 delivered. Does what i need + XY. In case anyone else is looking for a cheapie alternative - ebay link

    Just couldnt justify spending an extra $400 + for functions i'll never use..

    Awesome deal though!

    • Much better scope though. 4 channels in particular (I'd never buy a 2ch), serial decoding, larger memory depth etc. Software/UI is probably a fair bit better on the Siglent. Still $265 is a pretty good for a 100MHz cheapy.

      • if its 100MHz is real 100MHz … it maybe is.

      • Yeah I don't do data. I'm still getting by with my 40+y/o Tektronix CRO..

        I only use it for RF work (low f), aligning etc. The OP's Cro is an amazing piece of kit for the $$ but like I said though, I couldn't justify spending the extra 400+ nicker for functions I'll never ever use. I have an SDR which also doubles up as a very accurate frequency counter & a basic SpecAn.

        Most of the time I use my CRO on X/Y with a component analyser plugged into it..

        Believe me, I was very tempted.

  • Price just increased to $715.00

  • Price now A$693.00
