[:SOURce]:LIST:DWEL1?
This command sets the dwell time for the current list sweep points.
Dwell time is used when IMMediate is the trigger source. Refer to the :LIST:TRIGger:SOURce
command for the trigger setting.
The dwell time is the amount of time the sweep is guaranteed to pause after setting the frequency
and/or power for the current point.
The setting enabled by this command is not affected by signal generator power–on, preset, or *RST.
The variable <value> is expressed in units of seconds with a 0.000001 (S).
NOTE The dwell time (<value>) does not begin until the signal generator has settled for the current
frequency and/or amplitude change.
