Number of points: 2 to 801 points per table
Number of tables: 5 available
Entry modes: GPIB power meter or computed data
CW POWER SWEEP
Range: Sweeps between any two power levels at a single
CW frequency.
Resolution: 0.01 dB/step (Log) or 0.001 mV (Linear)
Accuracy: Same as CW power accuracy.
Log/Linear Sweep: Power sweep selectable as either log
or linear. Log sweep is in dB; linear sweep is in mV.
Step Size: User-controlled, 0.01 dB (Log) or 0.001 mV
(Linear) to the full power range of the instrument.
Step Dwell Time: Variable from 1 ms to 99 seconds. If the
sweep crosses a step attenuator setting, there will be a
sweep dwell of approximately 20 ms to allow setting of the
step attenuator.
SWEEP FREQUENCY/STEP POWER
A power level step occurs after each frequency sweep.
Power level remains constant for the length of time re-
quired to complete each sweep.
MODULATION
