Setting a Sweep Condition

Setting a sweep parameter

Choose a sweep parameter from among the oscillator frequency, oscillator level, and dc
bias level. To set the parameter, use the command given below.
• "SWPP" on page 449
The following settings for the sweep condition will be stored in memory for each
parameter chosen above.

Setting a sweep range

There are two ways to set the sweep range: by specifying the central value and span of the
sweep range or by specifying the start point and endpoint of the sweep range. To specify
the central value and the span, use the commands given below.
• "CENT" on page 277
• "SPAN" on page 442
To specify the start point and the endpoint, use the commands given below.
• "STAR" on page 444
• "STOP" on page 446
To set the number of measurement points within the sweep range, use the command given
below.
• "POIN" on page 401

Setting sweep time

To set the sweep time, use the command given below.
• "SWET" on page 448
You can set the point delay time (waiting time for measurement start at each measurement
point) and the sweep delay time (waiting time for sweep start at each sweep). To set them,
use the commands given below.
• "PDELT" on page 397
• "SDELT" on page 426

Setting a sweep direction

To set the sweep direction, use the command given below.
• "SWED" on page 448

Setting a sweep type

To set the sweep type, use the command given below.
• "SWPT" on page 449
