This example shows how to set up a frequency sweep.
1. Set the sweep range.
[SOURce:]FREQuency:CENTer 200 MHz
[SOURce:]FREQuency:SPAN 300 MHz
2. Select linear or logarithmic spacing.
[SOURce:]SWEep[:FREQuency]:SPACing LIN
3. Set the step width and dwell time.
[SOURce:]SWEep[:FREQuency]:STEP:LINear 20 MHz
[SOURce:]SWEep[:FREQuency]:DWELl 12 ms
4. Select the trigger mode.
TRIGger:]FSWeep:SOURce SINGle
5. Select the sweep mode and activate the sweep.
[SOURce:]SWEep[:FREQuency]:MODE AUTO
[SOURce:]FREQuency:MODE SWEep
6. Trigger the sweep.
[SOURce:]SWEep[:FREQuency]:EXECute
It is recommended to switch off the "GUI Update" for optimum sweep performance espe-
cially with short dwell times (SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate OFF).

[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep[:FREQuency]:DWELl <Dwell>
The command sets the time taken for each frequency step of the sweep.
The keyword [:FREQuency] can be omitted (see example). The command is then SCPI-
compliant.
