Basic Operation Preliminary
Configuring a Swept Output Preliminary
4. Sweep both frequency and amplitude: Press Return > Return > Sweep > Freq Off On > Amptd Off On.
A continuous sweep begins, from the start frequency/amplitude to the stop frequency/amplitude.
The SWEEP annunciator displays, and sweep progress is shown in the frequency display, the
amplitude display, and the progress bar.
5. Turn the RF output on: Press RF On/Off.
The RF LED lights, and the continuous sweep is available at the RF Output connector.
Using Basic Step Sweep Functions
This procedure demonstrates the following task:
“Configuring a Frequency Sweep (N5183A only)” on page 52
Configuring a Frequency Sweep (N5183A only)
For this example, we are going to set a step sweep using the N5183A, over a frequency range of 7.5
to 10.0 GHz, using a band–pass filter as our device under test, and display that response on a 8757D
Scalar Analyzer.
1. Set up the equipment as shown in Figure 3-6.
NOTE The N5183A signal generator does not support the 8757 system interface.
Scalar analyzer settings must match the signal generator’s settings.
