using an 11 digit format, with pre-pended zeros. If a frequency lower than the minimum supported
frequency (1.50 MHz) is entered, the XG3 will use the minimum supported frequency of 1.50 MHz. If
a frequency greater than 1400 MHz is entered, the XG3 will use the maximum supported frequency of
1400 MHz. Programming a memory location does not affect the current output frequency. See C(all)
command.

Program or view the specified sweep memory location
Valid sweep memory locations are 1 or 2. Location# is a required argument. If no other arguments are
given, the contents of that sweep memory are displayed. Start, end and step frequencies are entered
using an 11 digit format, with leading zeros. Programming a sweep memory location does not affect
the current output frequency. See S,01 & S,02 commands.
