8 Frequency Scan Measurement
Meas Setup
sweep point. The Step Size is calculated by this formula: Step Size = (Stop Frequency—Start Frequency)/
(Sweep Point-–1).
Selecting a MIL Preset will set the start/ stop frequencies, step size (in according to sweep point), and
RBW of the selected range according to the table values shown below. Point/RBW will be set to 2 for
Discrete and Smooth scan type.

The stop frequency of Band Edepends on the maximum frequency, with a maximum of 18 GHz. The
number of points in Band E is as below:
Option Max Freq Sweep Points
503 (3.0 GHz Models) 3.0 GHz 4001
503 (3.6 GHz Models) 3.6 GHz 5201
507 (7 GHz Models) 7.0 GHz 12001
507 (7.5 GHz Models) 7.5 GHz 13001
508 8.4 GHz 14801
513 13.2 GHz 24401
526 18 GHz 34001
Scan Sequence
Displays the menu keys that enable you to control the measurement sequence. You need to select the
Start key to start the selected measurement sequence. When Frequency Scan runs, some or all of the
following steps are included:
Scan:
If Scan is part of the current Scan Sequence, any hold or average trace will be reset. The Scan goes
through all of the range tables that are currently on, and scans the specified range using the range table
parameters. The detector(s) used for the scan are those specified in the Detectors menu under Trace/Det.
Each trace whose display and update state are not Off is displayed as it is being built. A maximum of 3
traces can be running simultaneously. All setting changes are locked during the scan, but you are still able
