Starting the Sweep
4.
  Press the SEGMENT MEASURE soft key. Only the specified segment unit is 
measured, and sweeping stops. The first time (only), sweeping begins from the 
start wavelength. 
5.
  If you press the SEGMENT MEASURE soft key again, sweeping of a segment 
unit begins from the stopped position. 
6.
  Repeat step 5. When the measured number of samples reaches the specified 
number of samples, segment measurement ends. 
7.
  To stop the sweep while in progress, press the STOP soft key. 
Note
•  With segment measurement, sweeping is performed in units of segments. 
•  If you press the SINGLE key or REPEAT key during segment measurement, segment 
measurement stops, and sweeping begins from the start wavelength. 
Explanation
SEGMENT MEASURE
This function divides up the specified number of measurement samples by the segment 
unit set using the SEGMENT POINT soft key, and performs measurement. 
SEGMENT POINT
This key is used to set the number of sampling points for performing <SEGMENT 
MEASURE>. When you press this key, the current number of sampling points is 
displayed in the parameter entry window. The number of sampling points can be set 
in the range of 1 to 50,001 in the DATA ENTRY section. When the setting value of 
SEGEMENT POINT is larger than the value which deducted points in this time from 
measurement sampling points , it measures to the last sampling points.
SWEEP INTERVAL
This key is used to set the time from one sweeping start to the next sweeping start during 
repeat sweeping.
If the time required for sweeping is greater than the set time, the next sweeping is started 
immediately after sweeping ends. 
When you press this key, the current setting time is displayed in the parameter input 
window. The setting range is MINIMUM or 1 to 99,999 seconds, and is set in the DATA 
ENTRY section.
If “0” is entered through the numeric keypad, then MINIMUM is set.
