Discrete Frequency Sweep - HP 3326A Operating And Reference Manual

D~screte Frequency Swee~
DISCRETE FREQUENCY SWEEP
Discrete
During a discrete frequency sweep, the HP 3326A sequences through the discrete fre-
quency sweep elements (channel
A and B frequencies, and dwell time) stored in non-
volatile memory with the SAVE DISCRETE key (see Figure 1-22). Discrete frequency
sweep element frequencies are entered with the FREQ (FREQuency) key, and dwell
times are entered with the TlME key. The HP 3326A always sequences through the
discrete frequency sweep elements from element 00 to the last element entered. With
SINGLE sweep selected, the HP 3326A sequences through the elements each time
the SINGLE key is pressed. With CONT sweep selected, the HP 3326A sequences
through the elements continuously. The message "Error 11 0 DSWP" (Discrete frequency
SWeeP) is displayed if no discrete frequency sweep elements are stored in memory.
Selecting TRIANGLE for a discrete frequency sweep cancels the discrete frequency
sweep and selects a linear sweep.
The DISCRETE key enables and disables discrete frequency sweeps. The DISCRETE
key is available by pressing the blue SHIFT key prior to pressing the TlME key. The
DISCRETE indicator illuminates when discrete frequency sweeps are enabled.

Recall Discrete
The RCL DISCRETE (ReCaLI DISCRETE) key followed by a discrete element number
replaces the channel A and B frequency values and time values with the values stored
for a d~screte frequency sweep element The RCL DISCRETE key 1 s avadable by press-
-
ing the blue SHIFT key prlor to pressing the RECALL key. Val~d discrete elements num-
bers range from 00 to 62. Recalling a null discrete frequency sweep element number
d~splays the message "Error 20 RNGE
