1.3 Sweep function
The source value can be varied according to a process set in advance.
There are three types: linear sweep, step sweep, and program sweep.
This cannot be used when the source function is set the frequency.
Linear Sweep
The source value is varied linearly from 0% to 100% (sweep up) or from 100% to 0% (sweep
down).

separately.

100% after sweeping.
