"Single"
Sets a single sweep cycle. The sweep is triggered by the "Execute Sin-
gle Sweep" button.
If a different sweep mode was activated prior to the "Single" mode, the
current sweep is stopped. The "Single" sweep always starts at the start
frequency when triggered.
The "Reset Sweep" button resets the sweep to the start frequency.
Example:
SOUR:SWE:FREQ:MODE AUTO
TRIG:FSW:SOUR SING
SOUR:FREQ:MODE SWE
SOUR:SWE:FREQ:EXEC
"Step"
Sets a step-by-step sweep cycle.
When mode "Step" is activated, the frequency is set to the sweep "Start
Freq".
To step through the sweep frequencies manually, open the "Current
Freq" field for input and use the UP / DOWN navigation keys or the
rotary knob.
You can determine the step width below in the entry field "Step Lin" or
"Step Log", see Step Lin/Log - Frequency Sweep.
If a sweep range border frequency ("Start Freq" or "Stop Freq") is
reached, step commands in direction out of the sweep range are
ignored.
The "Reset Sweep" button resets the sweep to the start frequency.
Note: To step through the sweep frequencies in remote control mode,
use the FREQ:MAN command with the UP or DOWN parameter.
Example:
SOUR:FREQ:CENT 300MHz
SOUR:FREQ:SPAN 400MHz
SOUR:SWE:FREQ:SPAC LIN
SOUR:SWE:FREQ:STEP:LIN 100MHz
SOUR:FREQ:MODE MAN

SOUR:FREQ:MAN UP
