The buttons are used to reset the RF sweep (all sweep modes) or to execute the RF
sweep ("Single" mode).
The sweep range, sweep spacing and dwell time are set in the bottom section.
You can configure the sweep range of the RF sweep in two ways, either by entering
the "Start" and "Stop" values or by entering the "Center" frequency and the "Span".
The two sets of parameters correlate as follows:
●
"Start Freq" = "Center Freq" - "Span"/2
●
"Stop Freq" = "Center Freq" + "Span"/2
●
"Center Freq" = ("Start Freq" + STOP FREQ)/2
●
"Span" = "Stop Freq" - "Start Freq"
RF Frequency Sweep Settings
