command: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:DWELl
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:DWELl<wsp>
<value>|MIN|MAX|DEF[NS|US|MS|S]
description: Sets the dwell time. Can only be used when sweep is stepped.
Cannot be set while a sweep is running.
parameters: The dwell time as a float value.
If you specify no units in your command, seconds are used as the default.
Also allowed are: MIN: minimum programmable value
MAX: maximum programmable value
DEF: This is not the preset (*RST) default value but is half the sum of, the minimum
programmable value and the maximum programmable value
response: none
example: wav:swe:dwel 500ms
affects: All tunable laser modules, except 81950A.
command: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:DWELl?
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:DWELl?[<wsp>MIN|MAX|DEF]
description: Returns the dwell time. Can only be used when sweep is stepped.
parameters: none
Also allowed are: MIN: minimum programmable value
MAX: maximum programmable value
DEF: This is not the preset (*RST) default value but is half the sum of, the minimum
programmable value and the maximum programmable value
response: The dwell time in seconds.
example: wav:swe:dwel?
-> +5.00000000E-001<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules, except 81950A.
