Agilent Technologies 8163B Programming Guide

Measurement Operations & Settings Signal Generation – The SOURce Subsystem
142 Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition
command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:REPeat
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:REPeat<wsp><mode>
description: Sets the repeat mode. Applies in stopped-sweep and manual-sweep modes.
parameters: ONEWay:
TWOWay:
Every stepped or continuous sweep cycle starts at the start wavelength of the
sweep and ends at the stop wavelength of the sweep
Every odd stepped sweep cycle starts at the start wavelength of the sweep, and
every even stepped sweep cycle starts at the stop wavelength of the sweep.
Set the start and stop wavelength of the sweep using
“[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt” on page 144 and
“[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STOP” on page 144 respec-
tively.
response: none
example: wav:swe:rep twow
affects: All tunable laser modules
command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:REPeat?
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:REPeat?
description: Returns the repeat mode.
parameters: none
response: ONEWay:
TWOWay:
Every stepped or continuous sweep cycle starts at the start wavelength of the
sweep and ends at the stop wavelength of the sweep
Every odd stepped sweep cycle starts at the start wavelength of the sweep,
and every even stepped sweep cycle starts at the stop wavelength of the
sweep.
Set the start and stop wavelength of the sweep using
“[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt” on page 144 and
“[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STOP” on page 144 re-
spectively.
example: wav:swe:rep? → ONEW<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules
