Remote command:
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:FREQuency:STOP
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:POWer:STOP
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:TIME:STOP
Steps - Power Analysis
Sets the number of steps for the sweep. The number of measured points is steps + 1.
The number of steps is one of the parameters that define the measurement speed. The
higher the number of steps, the longer the measurement takes (frequency and power
mode).
Remote command:
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:FREQuency:STEPs
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:POWer:STEPs
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:TIME:STEPs
Timing - Power Analysis
Frequency and power mode only.
Selects the timing mode of the measurement in frequency and power mode. This
parameter is not available in time mode.
"Fast"
Fast measurement with an integration time of 2 ms for each measure-
ment step.
"Normal"
A longer but more precise measurement (integration time is 20 ms/
step).
Remote command:
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:FREQuency:TIMing[:MODE]
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:POWer:TIMing[:MODE]
Average - Power Analysis
Time mode only
Selects the averaging factor in time mode. This parameter is not available in frequency
and power mode.
The factor determines how many measurement cycles are used to form a measure-
ment result. Higher averaging counts reduce noise but increase the measurement
time. Averaging requires a stable trigger event so that the measurement cycles have
the same timing. If factor 1 is selected, no averaging is performed.
Remote command:
:SENSe[:POWer]:SWEep:TIME:AVERage[:COUNt]
Spacing - Power Analysis
Sets the mode for calculating the sweep steps.
In power versus frequency mode, selection between linear and logarithmic spacing is
possible.
