Step Sweep
Mode
In step sweep frequency mode, the output frequency
changes in discrete, synthesized steps between
selected start and stop frequencies. Step sweeps can
be from a low frequency to a high frequency or from
a high frequency to a low frequency. Step sweeps
can be selected to be linear or logarithmic. Sweep
width can be set from 1 kHz (0.1 Hz with Option 11)
to the full frequency range of the instrument.
The step size or number of steps between the start
and stop frequencies, the dwell time-per-step, the
sweep time, and the type of step sweep (linear or
logarithmic) and sweep trigger are controllable from
step sweep menus.
