vating the mode and the generation of the signal when a trigger event occurs. The rele-
vant parameters and settings are briefly explained to each mode.
Each "Sweep" and "List" mode dialogs provides also a "Reset" function that sets the
signal to the initial situation (that is, the start value or the list begin). Depending on the
selected trigger mode, the signal generation proceeds accordingly.
The naming of the selection parameters in manual control (GUI) sometimes deviates
from the naming in the remote-control commands. In addition, the value names of the
selection parameters used in the signal generator partly differ from the SCPI syntax.
The instrument accepts all value names.
The correlation between the manual control and the corresponding remote control
commands, including the SCPI conform syntax are explained for each mode (see the
cross-reference tables).

control:

The instrument generates the signal continuously.
●
Trigger mode "Auto" is prerequisite. It causes the continuous generation of the
sweep signal.
●
Starts signal generation immediately with "State = On".
●
Switches automatically to the next sweep step when the
●
Stops signal generation with "State = Off".
