Configure sweeps
There are two methods to configure the start and stop levels of a sweep. You can use either the
:STARt and :STOP commands or you can use the :CENTer and :SPAN commands. See
later in this section.
NOTE
In order to run a sweep, the selected source must be in the sweep sourcing mode and the
trigger count should be the same as the number of source and measure points in the
sweep.
Use the VOLTage:MODE command to select the SWEep sourcing mode. See
The trigger count is set using the TRIGger:COUNt command. See
“Trigger subsystem,” page Section 16-58.
RANGing <name>
:SOURce[1]:SWEep:RANGing <name>Select source 1 ranging mode
:SOURce2:SWEep:RANGing <name>Select source 2 ranging mode
Parameters
<name> = BEST
Use the best fixed mode
AUTO
Use the most sensitive source range for
each sweep level
FIXed
Use the present source range for the
entire sweep
Query
:RANGing?
Query source ranging mode
Description
These commands are used to select the source ranging mode for sweeps using
the channel 1 and channel 2 voltage sources. With BEST selected, the
Model 6482 will select a single fixed source range that will accommodate all the
source levels in the sweep. For front-panel operation, this is the BEST FIXED
option.
With AUTO selected, the Model 6482 will automatically go to the most sensitive
source range for each source level in the sweep. For front-panel operation, this is
the AUTO RANGE option.
With FIXed selected, the source remains on the range that it is presently on when
the sweep is started. For sweep points that exceed the source range capability,
the source will output the maximum level for that range. For front-panel operation,
this is the FIXED option.
