Internal Sweep When the reference source is Internal Sweep, the SR850's synthesized internal reference is used as the reference and swept in frequency. Internal frequency sweeps are linked to the data acquisition scan. The frequency is changed once per sample (after the trace data is recorded) and sweeps from the start to stop frequency in one scan length amount of time. Pausing a scan with the [PAUSE RESET] key will pause a sweep. Resetting a scan will reset the frequency to the start frequency.

When using a sweep, it is useful to set the cursor readout to Fsweep (in the CURSOR SETUP menu). In this mode, the cursor will read the frequency as the horizontal coordinate.

Sweep Menu This key displays the internal reference sweep menu described below. This menu is only available when the ref- erence source is Internal Sweep.

Sweep Type The frequency sweep can be linear or logarithmic (actually exponential). Remember, the resolution of the sweep is determined by the number of samples in the scan, i.e. the scan length times the sample rate. If the number of sam- ples is small, the sweep will be very coarse.

Sweep Limits The upper field is the sweep start frequency and the lower field is the sweep stop frequency. Pressing either key will select an active entry field. The frequencies may be adjust- ed using the knob or entered directly with the keypad. The frequency can be swept in either direction.

Return This key returns to the main Reference Phase menu.
