Generate a single sweep cycle each time the
Trigger
button on the front panel is pressed
or the “Click to Trigger” button on the touch screen is clicked. If one sweep cycle is

Sweep Shape
Select
LF
->
LF Sweep
->
Sweep Shape
to select the waveform shape of the sweep signal.
1. Sawtooth
The sweep runs from the start to the stop frequency. Each subsequent sweep starts at the
start frequency, which means that the shape of the sweep sequence resembles a
Sawtooth.
2. Triangle
The sweep runs from start to stop frequency and back, which means the shape of the
sweep resembles a triangle. Subsequent sweep starts at the initial start frequency.
Sweep Space
Select
LF
