1. Setting the sweep type
• Select DC-SWP for DC sweep and PLS-SWP for pulse sweep by using the MODE key.
• Select the item B) SWEEP by using the MENU key.
Select Linear for linear sweep, Fixed for fixed sweep, Random for random sweep or Linear2
for 2-slope linear sweep from 1) Sweep Type.
Pulse sweep
Linear sweep
Sweeps with staircase pulse wave-
forms of the step value between the
first value and the last value.
Fixed sweep
Sweeps with pulse waveforms of
the specified constant value the
specified number of sample count.
Random sweep
Sweeps with pulse waveforms of
the source values stored in the
memory from the start address to
the stop address.
2-slope linear sweep
Sweeps with staircase pulse wave-
forms of the 1st step value between
the first value and the middle
value, and sweeps with staircase
pulse waveforms of the 2nd step
value between the middle value
and the last value.
