Figure 4- 120 Set frequency sweep parameters
•
When starting frequency < stop frequency, function / arbitrary waveform generator sweeps from low frequency to
high frequency.
•
When starting frequency> stop frequency, function / arbitrary waveform generator sweeps from high frequency to
low frequency.
•
When starting frequency= stop frequency, function / arbitrary waveform generator outputs fixed frequency.
•
The synchronous signal of frequency sweep mode is low from starting point to midpoint of frequency sweep time,
and high from midpoint to end of frequency sweep time.
By default, starting frequency is 1kHz and stop frequency is 1MHz, but the range of starting and stop frequency can vary
with frequency sweep waveform. See the table below for the frequency range of frequency sweep wave:

Frequency Sweep Mode
For linear frequency sweep, the waveform generator changes the output frequency in a linear way during frequency
sweep; for logarithmic frequency sweep, waveform generator changes the output frequency in a logarithmic way. Linear
frequency sweep mode is default. To change it, please press soft key Type on the interface for starting frequency sweep
mode (please press SWEEP first to enter the interface for selecting frequency sweep waveform).
