STEP:LOG
therefore gives the fraction of the old level. The level is increased by this
fraction for the next sweep step. Usually
STEP:LOG
is given in decibels, whereby the
suffix dB must always be used.
The command is linked to the command
:SWEep:POWer:POINts
for
STARt < STOP
as follows:
POINts = ((
STOP
-
STARt
) /
STEP:LOG
) + 1
If
STEP:LOG
changes, the value of
POINTs
is adjusted. The
STARt
and
STOP
value is
retained.
Parameters:
<Logarithmic>
float
Range:
0.01 to 139 dB
Increment: 0.01 dB
*RST:
1
Example:
SWE:POW:STEP 10dB
sets the step width for logarithmic sweep spacing to 10 dB of the
previous level in each instance (for a level sweep).
[:SOURce<hw>]:SWEep:RESet[:ALL]
The command resets all active sweeps to the starting point.
Example:
SWE:RES
resets all active sweeps to the starting point.
7.13 STATus Subsystem
This system contains the commands for the status reporting system.
on page 208 has no effect on the status registers.
Queries return the current value of the respective register, which permits a check of the
device status. A decimal value between 0 and 32767 (=2
15
-1) is returned.
The configuration commands set the respective register thus determining which status
changes of the R&S SMC causes the status registers to be changed. A decimal value
between 0 and 32767 (= 2
15
-1) is set.
