Tip
• The default setting for the linear sweep time is 16 seconds.
For details on changing the setting, refer to the next page.
• When output reaches the lower limit, the state is retained for 3 seconds,
and then output is turned off and the first sweep operation ends.
• To change the direction for varying output, press the SOURCE ON/OFF key
during the sweep operation. The direction for varying output changes and
the sweep operation continues. (For example, pressing the SOURCE ON/OFF
key during rising output results in the output switching to a falling direction.)
