Making Measurements
Using Test Sequencing
Commands That Sequencing Completes Before the Next Sequence Command Begins
The analyzer completes all operations related to the following commands before continuing with another
sequence command:
• single sweep
• number of groups
• auto scale
•marker search
• marker function
• data () memory
• recall or save (internal or external)
• copy list values and operating parameters
•CHAN1, CHAN2, Wait 0*
*Wait 0 is the special sequencing function with a zero entered for the delay value.
Commands That Require a Clean Sweep
Many front panel commands disrupt the sweep in progress, for example, changing the channel or
measurement type. When the analyzer does execute a disruptive command in a sequence, some instrument
functions are inhibited until a complete sweep is taken. This applies to the following functions:
• autoscale
• data memory
Forward Stepping in Edit Mode
In the sequence modify mode, you can step through the selected sequence list, where the analyzer executes
each step using the

Titles
A title may contain non-printable or special ASCII characters if you download it from an external controller. A
non-printable character is represented on the display as .
Sequence Size
A sequence may contain up to 2 kbytes of instructions. Typically, this is around 200 sequence command
lines. To estimate a sequence's size (in kbytes), use the following guidelines.
