and then press down the knob to select it. You can also press Type continuously or
enable the touch screen to select it.
1. Set the Sweep Type
Press Sweep Type, and rotate the multifunction knob to select the desired
sweep type, and then press down the knob to select it. You can also press
Sweep Type continuously or enable the touch screen to select it. The available
sweep types include Linear, Log, and Step.
Linear: the frequency of the signal changes linearly.
Log: the frequency of the signal changes in log form.
Step: the frequency of the signal changes with ladder-like step.
2. Sweep Settings
Press Settings to enter the sweep setting menu.
Set start frequency and end frequency
Start frequency and end frequency indicate the upper and lower limits of
the sweep frequency. The Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator always
sweeps from the start frequency to the end frequency, and then returns
back to the start frequency.
When start frequency is smaller than the end frequency, the
Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator sweeps from low frequency to
high frequency.
When start frequency is greater than the end frequency, the
Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator sweeps from high frequency
to low frequency.
When start frequency is equal to the end frequency, the
Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator outputs at a fixed frequency.
Press Start Freq, then rotate the multifunction knob or use the
pop-up numeric keypad to set the start frequency. Press End Freq, then
rotate the multifunction knob
or use the pop-up numeric keypad to set
the end frequency. By default, the start frequency is 100 Hz, and the end
frequency is 1 kHz. The ranges of start frequency and end frequency for
different sweep waveforms are different. After modifying the "Start Freq"
and "End Freq", the Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator will restart to
output from the specified "Start Freq".
Start Keep
Start keep indicates the time that the output signal keeps outputting at the
"Start Freq" after the sweep starts. After the start keep time expires, the
Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generator will continue outputting at a
different frequency based on the current sweep type.
Press Start Keep, then rotate the multifunction knob or use the
pop-up numeric keypad to set the start keep time. The default is 0 s, and
