60 Agilent X-Series Signal Generators SCPI Command Reference
Basic Function Commands
List/Sweep Subsystem ([:SOURce])
NOTE The dwell time (<value>) does not begin until the signal generator has settled for the current
frequency and/or amplitude change.
*RST 2.00000000Eï€003
Range 0.0001 to 100
Key Entry Step Dwell
Remarks Dwell time is used when the trigger source is set to IMMediate. Refer to the
:LIST:TRIGger:SOURce command for the trigger setting.
:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP[:LINear]
Supported All Models
[:SOURce]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:[LINear] <value><unit>
[:SOURce]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:[LINear]?
This command sets the step size for a linear step sweep in frequency (difference between frequency
points).
The variable <value> is expressed in units of frequency, specifies by the variable <unit> (as Hz, kHz,
MHz, or GHz).
NOTE: Setting the step size will determine the number of points in the step sweep based on the
current start and stop frequencies. Due to the integer number of step points, the step size may be
adjusted in order to yield a true linear sweep between the start and stop frequencies.
*RST 0.00 Hz
Key Entry LIN Freq Step
:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LOGarithmic
Supported All Models
[:SOURce]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LOGarithmic <value>
[:SOURce]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LOGarithmic?
This command sets the step size for a logarithmic step sweep in frequency (ratio between frequency
points).
The variable <value> is expressed as a percentage (%).
NOTE: Setting the step size will determine the number of points in the step sweep based on the
current start and stop frequencies. Due to the integer number of step points, the step size may be
adjusted in order to yield a true linear sweep between the start and stop frequencies.
*RST 0.00
