464 Agilent N8201A Performance Downconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 26.5 GHz
23 Sweep
Auto Sweep Time
Switches the N8201A between normal and accuracy sweep states. Provides you the ability
to select the rules for the control of sweep time when Sweep Time is set to Auto. Setting
Auto Sweep Time to Accy will result in slower sweep times, usually about three times as
long, but better amplitude accuracy for CW signals. The instrument specifications only
apply when Sweep Time is set to Auto, and Auto Sweep Time is set to Accy.
Additional amplitude errors occur when Auto Sweep Time is set to Norm are usually well
under 0.1 dB, though they are not guaranteed. Because of the faster sweep times and still
low errors, Norm is the preferred setting of Auto Sweep Time. Also, when the Auto All
function is performed, Auto Sweep Time is set to Norm.
Key Path: Sweep
Dependencies/Couplings: Key is grayed out in Zero Span and FFT, but still shows user
selected states (Norm or Accy). Goes to Norm on Auto All.
State Saved: Save
