Number of Sweeps selects the number of sweeps to be measured in single sweep mode: either
one (Single Sweep) or a group of consecutive sweeps.
Scope defines whether the active sweep mode (single or continuous) and the Number of Sweeps
are valid for the Active Channel only or for All Channels in the active setup. If All Channels is
selected, the number of sweeps in the single sweep sequence is equal to the selected Number of
Sweeps times the number of channels. The sequence starts with the first sweep in channel no. 1.
In remote control, it is possible to retrieve the results acquired in any of the sweeps within a single
sweep group; see Sweep History.

Define Busy Signal
Opens a dialog to configure the BUSY output signal at pin no. 4 of the USER CONTROL connector on the
rear panel of the analyzer.
Auto couples the BUSY signal to the active triggered measurement sequence (Channel – Sweep
– Trigger – Trigger Settings). After a Preset, the analyzer triggers an entire sweep. The BUSY
signal is turned on ("High" state) when the analyzer acquires the fist partial measurement data of
the first sweep point. It returns to "Low" state after the last partial measurement of the last sweep
point has been acquired.
The remaining settings select a fixed behavior. The BUSY signal monitors the duration of a
sweep, sweep segment, sweep point, or partial measurement.
In Alternating sweep mode, the BUSY signal can be used to monitor either each Partial Measurement
or the entire Sweep. Avoid the busy signal settings Point or Sweep Segment in combination with
alternating mode, since they may cause misleading results.
In multi-channel setups where the busy signal monitors an entire sweep, the exact behavior depends on
the restart scope (Channel – Sweep – Define Restart – Scope). The busy signal is active over All
Channels or over the Active Channel, depending on the restart scope settings.
The BUSY signal monitors the data acquisition phase, irrespective of the time required for sweep
