Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz 251
MASTer Enables the N8211A/N8212A to provide the triggering.
SLAVe Causes the N8211A/N8212A to submit to the triggering parameters provided by
the master N8211A/N8212A. You must set the slave N8211A/N8212A triggering to
continuous. Refer to“:INITiate:CONTinuous[:ALL]" on page 221.
Example
:SWE:CONT:TYPE MAST
Sets the N8211A/N8212A as the master sweep control instrument.
*RST 0
:SWEep:DWELl
Supported All
[:SOURce]:SWEep:DWELl <val>
[:SOURce]:SWEep:DWELl?
Enables you to set the dwell time for a step sweep.
The variable <val> is expressed in seconds with a 0.001 resolution.
The dwell time <val> does not begin until the N8211A/N8212A has settled for the current
frequency and/or amplitude change.
Dwell time is used when the trigger source is set to IMMediate. For the trigger setting,
refer to “:LIST:TRIGger:SOURce" on page 248.
The dwell time is the amount of time the sweep pauses after setting the frequency or
power, or both, for the current point.
Example
:SWE:DWEL .1
The example sets the dwell time for a step sweep to 100 mS.
