List Sweep
List sweep enables you to enter frequencies and amplitudes at unequal intervals in nonlinear
ascending, descending, or random order. List sweep also enables you to copy the current step sweep
values, include a waveform in a sweep (on a vector instrument), and save list sweep data in the file
catalog (page 67). Dwell time is editable at each point. For fastest switching speeds, use list sweep.

see page 57
The selected sweep determines which dwell time the signal generator uses. Step Sweep dwell
time is the same at each point; List Sweep dwell time can be different at each point.
Dwell Time = the time that the signal is settled and you can make a measurement before the
sweep moves to the next point.
Point–to–Point Time = the sum of the value set for the dwell plus processing time, switching
time, and settling time.
Each line defines the
corresponding point in
the sweep. For example,
line 1 defines point 1.
