The Gate Utility can be used to simplify the following steps. See Chapter 7 for
descriptions of the gate utility softkeys.
2. Set the sweep time to be 401 times greater than the pulse repetition interval. For this
example, the pulse repetition interval is 280 ps, so the sweep time is set to greater
than 401 times 280 US. or 0.112 s. For this example, we are using a sweep time
of 120 milliseconds.’ Press @WEEP), 120 @.
