Siglent SDM4055A software
Remote control and data logging for the Siglent SDM4055A multimeter, on Windows, Linux and macOS - with the same panel BenchMesh uses for every multimeter.
Status
Very likely. Support for the Siglent SDM4055A was written from Siglent’s programming manual and follows the same engine as the bench-tested instruments, but nobody has confirmed it on a real SDM4055A yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.
