SWEep - all sweeps
The source names of the parameters correspond to the values provided in manual
control of the instrument. They differ from the SCPI-compliant names, but the instru-
ment accepts both variants.
Use the SCPI name, if compatibility is an important issue. Find the corresponding
SCPI-compliant commands in Cross-reference between the manual and remote con-
trol.
Setting parameters:
<Source> AUTO | IMMediate | SINGle | BUS | EXTernal | EAUTo
AUTO [IMMediate]
Executes a sweep automatically.
In this free-running mode, the trigger condition is met continu-
ously. I.e. when a sweep is completed, the next one starts imme-
diately.
SINGle [BUS]
Executes one complete sweep cycle.
The following commands initiate a trigger event:
*TRG on page 454
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep:POWer:EXECute
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:EXECute
:TRIGger<hw>[:SWEep][:IMMediate], :TRIGger<hw>:
PSWeep[:IMMediate] and :TRIGger<hw>:FSWeep[:
IMMediate].
Set the sweep mode with the commands:
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep:POWer:MODEAUTO|STEP
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:MODEAUTO|STEP
[:SOURce<hw>]:LFOutput:SWEep[:FREQuency]:MODE
AUTO|STEP
In step mode (STEP), the instrument executes only one step.
EXTernal
An external signal triggers the sweep.
EAUTo
An external signal triggers the sweep. When one sweep is fin-
ished, the next sweep starts.
A second trigger event stops the sweep at the current frequency,
a third trigger event starts the trigger at the start frequency, and
so on.
