Dwell Time

Dwell Time, available from the Configuration Dialog Box, sets the

minimum period of time after the settling time that the synthesizer will

remain at its current state. The synthesizer can accept a Trig In trigger

during or after the dwell time, but it will not act until after the dwell

time is complete.

Dwell time can be set by an external host computer to different values.

These values of dwell time control how long the trigger outputs are

asserted. The synthesizer will wait the dwell time before going to the

next frequency or power or both, or when in list mode. The synthesizer

will wait the dwell time even if a new trigger is received before the end

of the dwell time is completed.

Settable Range: 0.5 us to 32.7675 ms
