Sweep Settings (SWEEP Menu)
Note
The SWEEP operating mode cannot be combined with the BURST operating
mode or with a modulation operating mode. When the SWEEP operating
mode is switched on, both the other operating modes are automatically
deactivated.
What the settings
are for
In the SWEEP operating mode the output frequency is changed stepwise in
1024 steps from a predefined starting frequency to a predefined stopping
frequency using a predefined sweep time. The time characteristic (linear or
logarithmic) can be selected. You can configure the R&S AM300 so that it
changes the frequency continuously or delivers an individual frequency
sweep (one-time frequency change from the starting frequency to the
stopping frequency) when an external or manual trigger occurs.
Note:
If you wish to review all the sweep settings at a glance, you can
arrange for the parameters to be clearly displayed complete with their
currently applicable settings ( 6-199).
