[REQ] DSLogic Plus - Pango version

[Ahmad_k]

Hello everyone,

does anyone have this logic analyzer ? DSLogic Plus 2023 variant which have PANGO FPGA instead of Spartan 6 FPGA.

Please can you dump the EEPROM next to the cypress IC. it is 24C128 chip. the content is not the same as the old version so I need the new dump. I messed with some files and I can't find the original dump.

SPARTAN FPGA (Old version)



PANGO FPGA (New version)

Hello again, I have compiled fx2lafw_eeprom_loader from source and added support for the new PANGO version u2basic and plus
Can anyone who have the new PANGO PLUS version try to dump EEPROM content, there is no need to open the device, just run this command:

fx2lafw_eeprom_loader -t M24128 -r dump.hex

I asked my employers store manager if we have a DSLogic Plus in the work place.
he said yes, and will need to have it returned to stores, as its out on loan.
it may or may not be the version you need, I hope to pick it up Monday afternoon.

Even if it is not the version I want, an original dump for EEPROM is really helpful for backup purpose  . I can identify from the dump what version do you have, also VID&PID specify which version it is.

[pickit2]

fx2lafw_eeprom_loader -t M2412 -r dump.hex = 'fx2lafw_eeprom_loader' Error  is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file

I can't see what is wrong : ran without and with admin rights.
I will play about with it.

update: Error I get with admin rights. looks like it did not like the name of the eeprom. so tried M24128 & the other typed in the error report.
eepom fitted is marked ST - 4128 - BRP  K226T
using Win11 will try Win10 later.

That means you have the pro version. Can you check vid & pid for your device ?

And make sure the device driver is installed

I installed DSview to a win10 pc, after install driver shows  driver installed with the name USB-based DSL Instrument V2
Software sees device.
the result is the same as above. with the probe connected and DSview connected / disconnected with the probe led red / green
same result : reset pc and without starting DSview.
If I exit DSview the led stays green. if I unplug it goes red.  

I get the following if I use M2412 = Unknown EEPROM type 'M2412'

if I use M24128 the error is
EEPROM is M24128 (16384 bytes)
EEPROM action is Read
Error: No device found

looks like EEPOM device name is wrong - I have not done this before so just a comment.
added the images for I think vid & pid

[Ahmad_k]

Did you run dsview, and checked if it is working ? Dsview will report the version you have

In the properties window above click on the list and choose hardware identifier

[Ahmad_k]

I just noticed a new hardware revision was added 3 weeks ago, that's why you didn't succeeded with the dump process. I added support for this model. you can find the updated tool in the attachment in case you still have the logic analyzer in your hand

[pickit2]

I still have the probe. I know its the new version - never knew our stores to have new anything we usually need to beg for funds.
anyway there is an error. 

C:\>fx2lafw_eeprom_loader -t M24128 -r dump.hex // command used
EEPROM is M24128 (16384 bytes)
EEPROM action is Read
Found PID = 0x2A0E, VID = 0x0034, 'DSLogic Plus (PANGO) V2'
Error: Failed to open hex file for reading 'Vend_Ax.hex'

[Ahmad_k]

That's weird, did you run as administrator ?
