COMMAND SUMMARY

The synthesizer uses “bumping” to move unspecified frequency
parameters, but if the final value of any of the frequency headers is
the result of bumping, then an error is generated since the user is

not getting what was specified. This means, to guarantee sequence

independence requires sending the frequency pairs in a single

message.

Example 1: (present state start = 5

stop = 6

20 GHZ

22 GHZ

an error results since the
stop frequency is bumped.
the final sweep does not
generate an error

(20 to 22).

Example 2: (present state start 5

stop 6

22 GHZ

20 GHZ

no error is generated,
start frequency is unchanged.
still no error.

Example 3: (present state start 5

stop 6

20 GHZ;STOP 22 GHZ

22

20 GHZ

both are fine, no errors.
