Siglent SSA3032X software

Remote control and data logging for the Siglent SSA3032X spectrum analyzer, on Windows, Linux and macOS - with the same panel BenchMesh uses for every spectrum analyzer.

Awaiting confirmation

Status

Very likely. Support for the Siglent SSA3032X 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 SSA3032X yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.

Connect it, press Detect, try the controls - then tell us how it went. Every confirmation moves a model from “Awaiting” to “Community-confirmed” for everyone.

Questions

Does BenchMesh work with the Siglent SSA3032X?
Very likely. Support for the Siglent SSA3032X 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 SSA3032X yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.
How do I connect the SSA3032X to my PC?
Over USB-TMC or LAN (SCPI socket). USB Test & Measurement Class (USB id f4ec). No vendor driver needed on Linux; on Windows BenchMesh installs Microsoft’s WinUSB driver with one click. Then press Detect in BenchMesh: it identifies the spectrum analyzer by its reply and adds it to the bench.
What can I control on the SSA3032X?
Spectrum analyzer: set atten auto, attenuation, center, detector, full span, marker, marker freq, peak search; read atten, atten auto, center, detector, marker, marker freq, marker level, points.
Can I log SSA3032X measurements to CSV?
Yes. Right-click any reading to add it to a recording; every instrument on the bench is sampled on one shared timeline and exported as one CSV.
Is BenchMesh free?
Yes. BenchMesh is free and open source, for Windows, Linux and macOS, and works offline.
