Sweep Trigger
Reveals a menu of choices for triggering a full sweep. You can choose
triggering that occurs immediately once a sweep is armed, triggering
that is supplied by the GPIB, triggering on either the positive or
negative edge of a signal supplied to the TRIGGER IN connector, or
triggering by the front panel
Trigger key.
Default Value: Immediate
Softkey Location:
Sweep/List > Sweep Trigger
Sweep Type List Step
Toggles the sweep type from list sweep to step sweep. You create a list
sweep by supplying the frequency, amplitude, and dwell time for each
point in the sweep. You create a step sweep by supplying the start and
stop frequency and amplitude, the number of points, and a dwell time.
The signal generator then calculates the points between the first and
last point in a linear manner.
Default Value: List
