The actual frequency at the RF output does not change, but rather the value queried
with [:SOUR]:FREQ?, according to the formula:
f
FREQ
= f
RFout
* f
MULTiplier
+ f
OFFSet
Correlation: FREQ for FREQ:MODE SWE is linked to the sweep frequency.
Parameters:
<Fixed> float
Range: full frequency range
Increment: see the data sheet: RF characteristics > Resolution
of setting
*RST: 100 MHz
Example:
FREQ 500kHz
sets the frequency of RF output signal A to 500 kHz.
Manual operation: See "RF Freq" on page 210
[:SOURce<hw>]:FREQuency[:CW|FIXed]:RCL <Rcl>
Determines whether the RF frequency value is retained or taken from a loaded instru-
ment configuration, when you recall instrument settings with the command *RCL.
Parameters:
<Rcl> INCLude | EXCLude
INCLude
Takes the frequency value of the loaded settings.
EXCLude
Retains the current frequency when an instrument configuration
is loaded.
*RST: INCLude
Example:
FREQ:RCL INCL
takes the frequency from the loaded instrument configuration.
Manual operation: See " Exclude Frequency " on page 163
[:SOURce<hw>]:FREQuency:MANual <Manual>
Determines the frequency and triggers a sweep step manually in SWE:MODE MAN.
Note: You can select any frequency within the setting range. The range is defined with
the parameters [:SOURce<hw>]:FREQuency:STARt and [:SOURce<hw>]:
FREQuency:STOP. A defined offset and the multiplier factor affect the sweep range
and therefore all correlated parameters. The set frequencies are only absolute values,
if the offset = 0 and the multiplication factor = 1. The multiplier multiplies the frequen-
cies accordingly, and the offset ≠ 0 shifts the frequencies corresponding to the set
value.
