TRAN- TRANSIENTS Screens
Transient sequences allow precise time-controlled changes to be made to voltage (AC and
DC mode) and frequency (AC mode only) under program control. A transient sequence
consists of one or more list entries (or segments) that are executed in sequence.
Transient lists are created or edited in EDIT mode and can be saved to non-volatile memory
as part of an instrument setup. They are executed in Execution mode.

Description
Displays the row number in the
transient table. These numbers are
generated automatically.
Ramp time to slew from existing set
point to new set point value. Applies
to both Frequency and Voltage.
If previous set value is the same as
new value, the value is not slewed
but rather stays at the same value for
the duration of the ramp time.
New frequency value
New AC voltage value
Dwell time. At the end of the ramp
time, the new set values remain in
effect during the dwell time period.
At the end of the dwell time, the next
list entry (if any) will be executed.
