SWEep:STEP
?
[MAXimum

MINimum]
Sets and queries the size of each frequency step.
:STEP
is governed
by the equation: STEP = SPAN/POINTS.
If you change step size then the number of points will be changed
to span/step and a Parameter Bumped execution error is reported.
If span or points are changed, then STEP= SPAN/POINTS. The
step sweep command creates a coupling with sweeptime also.
If the number of points is changed through this coupling and
DWELl:AUTO
is
ON
and
TIME:AUTOis
ON,then
dwell is changed to
SWEEPTIME/POINTS.
Span is normally an independent variable
but is changed to STEP x POINTS if both of these parameters are
changed in the same message. *RST value is
StopMax-StartMin/lO.

SWEep:TIME?
[MAXimumlMINimuml
Sets and queries the current sweep time. The dwell time can be
coupled
to sweep timeifSWE:DWEL:AUTO is ON.
The
dwell time is
then governed by the equation
DWELl
= SWEEPTIME/POINTS.
Changing either sweep time or the number of points causes
DWELl
to be recalculated but does not cause an error. If you attempt to
change the dwell time then :AUTOis set to
OFF.IfDWELl:AUTOis
OFF
then sweep time is independent of the dwell time and the number of
points. *RST value is MIN.

SWEep:TIME:AUTO?
Sets and queries the automatic sweep time switch.
ON
The
value of the sweep time is automatically to
minimum.
OFF
Attempting to set a sweep time faster than allowed in the
AUTO mode causes this switch to change to AUTO ON
even
if it was previously in the
AUTO OFF mode.
*RST state is ON.

SWEep:TIME:LLIMit?
[MAXimumlMINimum]
Sets and queries the lower sweep time limit. This value specifies the
fastest sweep time that you wants the instrument to allow either on
input or when calculated internally when in AUTO ON mode. This
value must be greater than 10 ms. *RST value is 10 ms.

SWEep:TRIGger:SOURce?
Sets and queries the stepped sweep point-to-point trigger source.
This only applies when
SWEep:GENis set to
STEPped.
