In zero span
Auto- coupled does not function when in a zero 
span. The sweep time can only be set manually. 
The sweep time is selectable from 6 s to 200 s in 
zero span. 
In FFT Mode
In FFT mode, the sweep time default is 
auto- coupled. The submenu, sweep time is invalid 
in FFT mode.
Sweep Type
Key access: [Sweep] > {Sweep}
Toggles the analyzer between the continuous sweep 
mode and the single sweep mode. 
• Sweep (Single)  
Puts the analyzer in a single sweep mode. In this 
mode, pressing [Sweep] > {Single Sweep} enables a 
sweep.
• Sweep (Cont)  
Performs one sweep after another as soon as it 
is triggered. Pressing [Preset] (When Preset Type 
is set to Default) or turning the power on, sets 
the sweep mode to continuous sweep as default.
Single Sweep
Key access: [Sweep] > {Single Sweep}
When the analyzer is in continuous sweep mode 
and not in a measurement mode ([MEAS] > Measure 
Off), pressing [Sweep] > {Single Sweep}  will change 
the sweep setting to single sweep. It will then 
begin a sweep after the trigger conditions are met. 
If the analyzer is already in single sweep, pressing 
[Sweep] > {Single Sweep}  will execute a new sweep 
as soon as the trigger condition is met.
