Agilent X-Series Signal Generators SCPI Command Reference 59
Basic Function Commands
List/Sweep Subsystem ([:SOURce])
[:SOURce]:LIST:WAVeform:POINts?
This query returns the number of waveform points in the current list sweep file.
:SWEep:ATTen:PROTection[:STATe]
Supported All Models
[:SOURce]:SWEep:ATTen:PROTection[:STATe] ON|OFF|1|0
[:SOURce]:SWEep:ATTen:PROTection[:STATe]?
This command enables protection for the mechanical attenuator by automatically turning on Atten
Hold during frequency and/or power step sweeps.
This may cause unleveled RF output to occur for certain sweep configurations. Disabling this
attenuator protection will allow the sweep to optimally set both the automatic leveling control (ALC)
and output attenuation at each sweep point.
ON (1) This choice enables attenuator protection.
OFF (0) This choice disables attenuator protection. When the attenuator protection is
disabled, the step dwell time will be set to a minimum of 50 ms as a precaution.
Example
:SWE:ATT:PROT 0
The preceding example disables attenuator protection.
*RST 1
Key Entry Step Atten Protection On Off
:SWEep:CPOINt?
Supported All Models
[:SOURce]:SWEep:CPOINt?
This query returns the current sweep point in any mode.
:SWEep:DWELl
Supported All Models
[:SOURce]:SWEep:DWELl <value>
[:SOURce]:SWEep:DWELl?
This command enables you to set the dwell time for a step sweep.
The variable <value> is expressed in units of seconds with a 0.001 resolution.
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.
