Configuring an Amplitude Sweep
1. Press Return > Sweep > Off.
This turns off both the current sweep and the alternate sweep from the previous task. The
current CW settings now control the RF output.
2. Press
Configure Ramp/Step Sweep.
3. Using the
Ampl Start and Ampl Stop softkeys, set an amplitude range to be swept.
4. Press
Return > Sweep > Ampl.
The new amplitude ramp sweep settings control the RF output and the CW mode is turned off.
Configuring a Ramp Sweep for a Master/Slave Setup
This procedure shows you how to configure two PSGs and an 8757D to work in a master/slave setup.
The master/slave control setup must use two instruments from the same signal generator family such
as two PSG’s, or two 83640B’s, or two 83751B’s.
NOTE The master/slave setup applies to ramp sweep only, not step sweep or list sweep. To use this
setup, you must have two sources from the same signal generator family such as two PSG’s,
or two 83640B’s, or two 83751B’s.
