Setting Sweep Range; Setting By Start And Stop Values; Setting By Center And Span Values - Agilent Technologies 4294A Operating Manual

Setting Sweep Range

Sweep range can be set by specifying either start and stop values or center and span values.
NOTE The measurement range can be set to trace A and trace B in common. It is not necessary to
select an active trace or to verify the current selection before setting the range.

Setting by start and stop values

Step 1. Press the
parameter settings area located in the upper-left part of the screen.
Step 2. Use the keys or the rotary knob in the ENTRY block in one of the following ways to
specify a value for the sweep start.
• Enter the desired value with the numeric keys (
of the unit keys (
• Turn the rotary knob (
• Press the step keys ([­][¯]) to set the desired value.
Step 3. Press the
parameter settings area in the upper-left part of the screen.
Step 4. Use the keys or the rotary knob in the ENTRY block in one of the following ways to
specify a value for the sweep stop.
• Enter the desired value with the numeric keys (
of the unit keys (
• Turn the rotary knob (
• Press the step keys ([­][¯]) to set the desired value.
NOTE
When the sweep parameter is set to frequency, the sweep start value cannot be greater than
the sweep stop value. Sweep with decreasing frequency can be possible by setting a sweep
range with increasing frequency and then specifying a downward sweep direction. Refer to
"Selecting Sweep Direction" on page 99 to specify the sweep direction.

Setting by center and span values

Step 1. Press the
the parameter settings area located in the upper-left part of the screen.
Step 2. Use the keys or the rotary knob in the ENTRY block in one of the following ways to
specify a value for the sweep center.
• Enter the desired value with the numeric keys (
of the unit keys (
• Turn the rotary knob (
