STEP
Each trigger event triggers one sweep step. The frequency
increases by the value entered with [:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:
FREQuency]:STEP[:LINear] (linear spacing) or [:
SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LOGarithmic
(logarithmic spacing).
*RST: AUTO
Example: See Example"Setup an RF frequency or power sweep"
on page 506.
Manual operation: See "Mode" on page 130
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:POINts
<Points>
Sets the number of steps within the RF frequency sweep range.
See Chapter 6.2.1, "Correlating parameters in sweep mode", on page 122.
Two separate POINts values are used for linear or logarithmic sweep spacing ([:
SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:SPACing LIN | LOG). The command
always affects the currently set sweep spacing.
Parameters:
<Points> integer
Range: 2 to Max
Example: See Example"Setup an RF frequency or power sweep"
on page 506.
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:SPACing <Spacing>
Selects the mode for the calculation of the frequency intervals, with which the current
frequency at each step is increased or decreased.
The keyword [:FREQuency] can be omitted; then the command is SCPI-compliant.
Parameters:
<Spacing> LINear | LOGarithmic
LINear
Sets a fixed frequency value as step width and adds it to the cur-
rent frequency.
The linear step width is entered in Hz, see [:SOURce<hw>]:
SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP[:LINear].
LOGarithmic
Sets a constant fraction of the current frequency as step width
and adds it to the current frequency.
The logarithmic step width is entered in %, see [:
SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LOGarithmic.
