Hello everybody,
I am a little bit confused, but can I perform a one time linear sine sweep ? I want to control the 33521A via MATLAB (VİSA) and want to generate only one linear sine sweep with interval: f_0 to f_end. The problem is, that sweep is loop all the time and when the sweep is not started, the standard output signal is f_0.
I even tried out the timer delay in the trigger settings, but could not figure it out ?!.
Thank you very much.
best regards,
opcode

The command you are looking for is TRIGger1:SOURce. The options are:
- IMMediate (internal) -- this is the default mode where the instrument continuously triggers itself
- EXTernal -- an external or manual trigger
- BUS -- software trigger
You can use a software trigger and send only one trigger to the unit every time you want a single sweep.
Best Regards,
