Sweep Type
Chooses between the FFT and Sweep types of sweep.
Sweep Type refers to whether or not the instrument is in Swept or FFT analysis. When in Auto,
the selection of sweep type is governed by two different sets of rules, depending on whether you
want to optimize for dynamic range or for speed.
FFT “sweeps” should not be used when making EMI measurements; therefore, when a CISPR
detector (Quasi Peak, EMI Average, RMS Average) is selected for any active trace (one for which
Update is on), the FFT key in the Sweep Type menu is grayed out, and the Auto Rules only
choose Swept. If Sweep Type is manually selected to be FFT, the CISPR detectors are all grayed
out.
FFT sweeps will never be auto-selected when Screen Video, Log Video or Linear Video are the
selected Analog Output.

In Zero Span, this key is irrelevant and cannot be accessed (because the whole Sweep Setup
menu is grayed out in Zero Span), however its settings can be changed remotely with no error
indication.
When Gate is on, Gate Method selection affects Sweep Type:
Method FFT&Sweep menu
FFT - Swept grayed out and rules choose FFT
Video - FFT grayed out and rules choose Swept
LO - FFT grayed out and rules choose Swept
