[SENSe<Ch>:]SWEep:TYPE <Format>
Selects the sweep type, i.e. the sweep variable (frequency/power/time) and the posi-
tion of the sweep points across the sweep range.
Suffix:
<Ch>
.
Channel number.
Parameters:
<Format> LINear | LOGarithmic | POWer | CW | POINt | SEGMent
LINear
Linear frequency sweep at constant source power
(SOURce<Ch>:POWer<PhyPt>[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:
AMPLitude]). The stimulus frequency
([SENSe<Ch>:]FREQuency:...) is swept in equidistant steps
over the frequency range. In a Cartesian diagram, the x-axis is a
linear frequency axis.
LOGarithmic
Logarithmic frequency sweep. The frequency is swept in equi-
distant steps on a logarithmic scale. In a Cartesian diagram, the
x-axis is a logarithmic frequency axis.
POWer
Power sweep. The measurement is performed at constant fre-
quency (SOURce<Ch>:FREQuency<PhyPt>:FIXed) but with
variable generator power that is swept in linear, equidistant
steps over a continuous range
(SOURce<Ch>:POWer<PhyPt>:STARt, SOURce<Ch>:
POWer<PhyPt>:STOP). In a Cartesian diagram, the x-axis is a
dB-linear power axis.
CW
Time sweep. The measurement is performed at constant fre-
quency (SOURce<Ch>:FREQuency<PhyPt>:FIXed) and
source power (SOURce<Ch>:POWer<PhyPt>[:LEVel][:
IMMediate][:AMPLitude]) and repeated over a specified
period of time at constant time intervals.
POINt
CW mode sweep, time sweep triggered according to the current
trigger settings.
SEGMent - segmented frequency sweep. The sweep range is
composed of several continuous frequency ranges or single fre-
quency points defined by means of the commands in the
[SENSe<Ch>:]SEGMent<Seg>... subsystem.
*RST:
LINear
Example:
*RST
Reset the analyzer, activating a linear frequency sweep.
SWE:TYPE LOG
Change to a logarithmic frequency sweep, resetting the stimulus
values of the sweep points.
