[SOURce:]POWer:STEP:MODE USER | DECimal
This command activates (USER) or deactivates (DECimal) the user-defined step width used when
varying the level value with the level values UP/DOWN. The command is linked to setting Variation

used when varying the level value with the rotary knob.
Example:
POW:STEP 2
'sets the step width for the level setting to 2 dB'.
POW:STEP:MODE USER
'actives this step width for level variation with the rotary knob (manual control)
and with level values UP/DOWN (remote control)'.

DECimal - Device-specific
[SOURce:]POWer:STOP Minimum level ... Maximum level
The command sets the stop level in Sweep mode.
As with the Level value entered in the RF Level menu, the OFFSet value is also taken into
consideration with this command.
The specified value range is therefore only effective if :SOURce:POWer:OFFSet is set to 0. The
value range for other OFFset values can be calculated using the following formula:
Minimum level + OFFSet ...Maximum level + OFFSet
Parameters: Minimum level ... Maximum level
The value range for the level setting varies according to the instrument model.
The values are given in the data sheet.
Example:
POW:STOP 3
'sets the stop level for the level sweep to 3 dBm.
*RST value Resolution Options SCPI
-10 dBm 0.01 dB Compliant
