[SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:FREQuency[:CW|:FIXEd]:STEP
<numeric_value>
This command sets the number of steps in average or peak frequency sweep. It
must be used in conjunction with external trigger.
The frequency sweep range will be equally divided by the frequency step. If trace
display is turned on, the measurement window will be restored to single numeric
or analog depends on the number of measurement channel.
Determine the Right Step to be Set
NOTE
Number of frequency step can be calculated using equation below:
Step = f
where,
Step = Number of frequency step
f
start
f
stop
Interval = Frequency step size
Example
When f
should be set to
Step = f
