Step Size (Frequency) A read-only field displays the calculated frequency step-size based on the requested frequency span and the number of points selected in the buttons above. If the CW Mode (below) is set to ON, the read-only field displays 0 (zero) Hz (shown at left). CW Mode (Off/On) The Continuous Wave (CW) toggle button, on a per-channel basis, toggles the CW function off and on. The default setting is off. If CW Mode is ON, the Step Size (Frequency) display (described above) is set to 0 (zero) Hz and the # of Points setting changes to what has been set for the CW Mode. CW Frequency The CW Frequency button displays the CW Frequency field toolbar and allows the user to set the required CW frequency. Input the required frequency value and select GHz, MHz, kHz, or Hz. If a calibration is active, the VNA will choose the closest CW frequency point from the active calibration points. If the requested CW frequency is a calibrated point, the VNA will assign the entered value. Note that the CW Frequency must fall within the range set by the Start/Stop buttons above. |

Start Range (Frequency) Select displays the Start Range (Frequency) toolbar with frequency values and units of GHz, MHz, kHz, and Hz. Stop Range (Frequency) Select displays the Stop Range (Frequency) toolbar with frequency values and units of GHz, MHz, kHz, and Hz. Maximize Range (Frequency) Select maximizes the start and stop value to the maximum of the instrument. Note that when clicked, any previously entered Start and Stop value are overwritten and cannot be recovered unless a preset save was done. Display Start (Frequency) A read-only display of the Start Range frequency. Display Stop (Frequency) A read-only display of the Stop Range frequency. Data Points (Number) A read-only display of the calculated number of data points in the set frequency range. |
Start (Index Number) Select displays the Start (Index Number) toolbar allowing the selection of a starting index number for the sweep. Stop Index (Number) Select displays the Stop (Index Number) toolbar allowing the selection of an ending index number for the sweep. Maximize Range (Index Number) Select maximizes the start and stop value to the maximum of the instrument. Note that when clicked, any previously entered Start and Stop value are overwritten and cannot be recovered unless a preset save was done. Display Start (Index Number) A read-only display of the Start Index number. Display Stop (Index Number) A read-only display of the Stop Index number. Data Points (Number) A read-only display of the calculated number of data points in the swept frequency range. |
CW Mode (Off/On) The CW Mode toggle button is set to a read-only value of ON for a per-channel basis. CW Frequency The CW Frequency button displays the CW Frequency field toolbar and allows the user to set the required CW frequency. Input the required frequency value and select GHz, MHz, kHz, or Hz. Note that the CW Frequency must fall within the range set by the Start/Stop buttons above. |
