Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:FREQuency:MANual on page 1043
[:SOURce<hw>]:LFOutput:FREQuency:MANual on page 1064
Current Level
Applies to "RF Level Sweep" mode.
Displays the current level value.
In Mode = "Step", the parameter is editable and you can enter the next level step.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:POWer:MANual on page 1098
Spacing
In "RF and LF Frequency Sweep" modes, selects the mode for the calculation of the
frequency intervals, with which the current frequency at each step is increased or
decreased.
Enter the step size with the parameter Step Linear/Step Logarithmic .
"Linear"
Takes the frequency value entered as absolute value in Hz.
"Logarithmic"
Takes the value entered as a logarithmic value, i.e. as a constant
fraction of the current frequency in %.

Shape
Selects the waveform shape of the sweep signal.
See also Chapter 7.6.2.2, "Sweep Signal Shapes", on page 469.
"Sawtooth"
The sweep runs from start to stop frequency. The subsequent sweep
starts at the start value, i.e. the shape of the sweep sequence resem-
bles a sawtooth.
"Triangle"
The sweep runs from start to stop value and back, i.e. the shape of
the sweep resembles a triangle. Each subsequent sweep starts at the
start frequency.

Retrace
For "Shape = Sawtooth" and "Mode = Single/External Single", activates that the signal
changes to the start value while it is waiting for the next trigger event.
See "The Retrace function" on page 466.
