Parameters:
<Mode>
AUTO | MANual | STEP
AUTO
Each trigger triggers exactly one complete sweep.
MANual
The trigger system is not active. Each level step of the sweep is
triggered individually, either by varying the "Current Level" value
using the rotary knob under manual control or by means of a
POW:MAN
command under remote control.
With manual control, the level increases or decreases (depend-
ing on the direction of the rotary encoder) by the value specified
under
SOUR:SWE:POW:STEP
. With remote control, the level
increases by the value specified under
SWEep:POW:STEP
which
each sent
:POW:MAN
command, irrespective the value entered
there.
STEP
Each trigger triggers one sweep step only. The level increases
by the value entered under
:SWEep:POWer:STEP
.
*RST:
AUTO
Example:
SWE:POW:MODE AUTO
selects Mode Auto for a level sweep at RF output.
Manual operation:
See
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep:POWer:POINts
<Points>
Determines the number of steps for the RF level sweep within the sweep range.
This parameter always applies to the currently set sweep spacing and correlates with
the step size as follows:
pow_points = (f
STOP
- f
STARt
/ step_log) + 1
To determine the step size use the command
.
If you change the number of sweep points, the step size changes accordingly. The
sweep range remains the same.
Parameters:
<Points>
integer
Range:
2...max
Example:
POW:STAR - 30 dBm
sets the start frequency to -30 dBm.
POW:STOP - 10 dBm
sets the stop frequency to -10 dBm.
SWE:POW:POIN 20
sets 20 sweep steps. The sweep step width (
STEP
) is automati-
cally set to 1 dB.
