4 Set the stop frequency.
Press the Stop softkey and then set the value to 5 kHz using the numeric 
keypad or the knob and cursor keys.
At this point, the function generator outputs a continuous sweep from 
50 Hz to 5 kHz (if the output is enabled). 
Note: If desired, you can set the frequency boundaries of the sweep using 
a center frequency and frequency span. These parameters are similar to 
the start frequency and stop frequency and are included to give you added 
flexibility. To achieve the same results, set the center frequency to 2.525 
kHz and the frequency span to 4.950 kHz.
