Sweep     

The 

Sweep

 submenu defines the scope of measurement in the current channel. This includes the 

sweep type with various parameters, the trigger conditions and the periodicity of the measurement.  

Sweeps 

A sweep is a series of consecutive measurements taken over a specified sequence of stimulus values. 

It represents the basic measurement cycle of the analyzer.  

The analyzer can perform sweeps at constant power but variable frequency (frequency sweeps), 

sweeps at constant frequency but variable power (power sweeps), and sweeps at constant power and 
frequency that are repeated in time (Time/CW Trigger Event sweeps); see Sweep Type.  

The sweeps are further specified by the number of measurement points, the total measurement time 

and the trigger mode. A measurement may consist of a single sweep or a series of sweeps repeated 
continuously. 

On the other hand, depending on the measurement task and the measured quantity, the measurement 

at each point can consist of several partial measurements with definite hardware settings. 

The 

Sweep 

menu provides the following settings: 

•

Sweep Type

 defines the sweep variable (frequency/power/time) and the position of sweep 

points in the sweep range. 

•

Number of Points

 sets the total number of measurement points over the sweep range.  

•

Frequency Step Size

 sets the distance between two consecutive frequency sweep points.  

•

Sweep Time

 varies the measurement time for a sweep or delays the start of each sweep. 

•

Trigger

 selects the trigger mode for the measurement. 

•

Manual Trigger

 while the 

Manual 

trigger mode is active generates a trigger event. This softkey 

is also available in the 

Trigger

 submenu.  

•

If

 Single (All Chans)

 is selected the measurement is terminated after a single sweep or a group 

of single sweeps defined in the 

Define Restart

 dialog.  

•

Restart

 aborts the current measurement and restarts a new sweep sequence.  

•

Define Restart

 opens a dialog to specify how many sweeps are repeated.
