Step Sweep


The output frequency of the instrument is “stepping” from “Start Frequency” to “End
Frequency”. The duration of the output signal on each frequency point is determined
by “Sweep Time” and “Step Number”.

When Sweep is enabled, press SwpType to select “Step”. In Graphic Mode, a step
waveform, which indicates the output frequency is changing in “step” mode, will
appear on the screen (shown in the figure below). Now, use

to open the 2/2

menu page, press StepNum and use the numeric keyboard or the knob to set the
step number. The default is 2 and the available range is from 2 to 2048. Notice that,
the StepNum menu is grayed out and disabled in “Linear” and “Log” sweep type
mode.
