To Output a Frequency Sweep
In the frequency sweep mode, the function generator “steps” from the start
frequency to the stop frequency at a sweep rate which you specify. You can sweep
up or down in frequency, and with either linear or logarithmic spacing. For this
example, you will output a swept sine wave from 50 Hz to 5 kHz. You will not
change the other parameters from their default settings: internal sweep trigger,
linear spacing, and 1 second sweep time.
1 Select the function and amplitude for the sweep.
For sweeps, you can select sine, square, or ramp waveforms (pulse, noise, dc,
and arbitrary waveforms are not allowed). For this example, select a sine wave
with an amplitude of 5 Vpp.
2 Select the sweep mode.
Press and then verify that the linear sweep mode is currently selected.
Notice that a status message “Linear Sweep” is shown in the upper-left corner
of the display.
3 Set the start frequency.
Press the Start softkey and then set the value to 50 Hz using the numeric
keypad or the knob and cursor keys.
