5.2.3 Operations in Sweep Source Mode
The following table shows operations in the sweep source mode.
Table 5-4    Operations in Sweep Source Mode  (1/2)
Sweep types Description Waveform
DC Sweep
Linear sweep
Sweeps with staircase waveforms 
of the step value between the first 
value and the last value.
Fixed sweep
Sweeps with waveforms of the 
specified constant value the speci-
fied number of sample count.
Random sweep
Sweeps with waveforms of the 
source values stored in the memory 
from the start address to the stop 
address.
2-slope linear sweep
Sweeps with staircase waveforms 
of the 1st step value between the 
first value and the middle value, 
and sweeps with staircase wave-
forms of the 2nd step value 
between the middle value and the 
last value.
