Sweep 
 
When the sweep function is turned on, the RF signal generator outputs RF sweep 
signal from the [RF OUTPUT 50Ω] connector (as shown in the figure below) at the 
front panel (at this point, the RF output should be turned on).   
 
 
 
 
Sweep Manner 
 
DSG800 provides three sweep manners ("Freq", "Level" and "Freq & Lev"). The 
sweep function is turned on when any of the sweep manners is selected and the 
Sweep label in the function status area of the user interface is illuminated. By default, 
the sweep function is turned off.   
 
Press SWEEP  Sweep to select the desired sweep manner. 
 
  Off: the default state. Turn off the sweep function. 
  Freq: turn on the frequency sweep function. At this point, the frequency sweep 
progress bar is displayed in the frequency area in the user interface.   
  Level: turn on the amplitude sweep function. At this point, the amplitude sweep 
progress bar is displayed in the amplitude area in the user interface. 
  Freq & Lev: turn on the frequency and amplitude sweep functions at the same 
time. At this point, the frequency and amplitude sweep progress bars are 
displayed in the frequency and amplitude areas in the user interface 
respectively. 
 
 
Sweep Direction 
 
Press SWEEP and use the menu page up/down key 
  to open the 3/3 page of 
the menu; then, press Direct to select "Fwd" or "Down" and the default is "Fwd".   
 
  Fwd: the RF signal generator sweeps from the start frequency or start level to 
the stop frequency or stop level. The progress bars in the frequency area and 
amplitude area in the user interface sweep from left to right. 
  Down: the RF signal generator sweeps from the stop frequency or stop level to 
the start frequency or start level. The progress bars in the frequency area and 
amplitude area in the user interface sweep from right to left.
