Optimization mode Description
Dynamic The narrowest filter possible (depending on the RBW) is used.
Speed The widest filter possible (depending on the RBW) is used.
Auto A medium-sized prefilter is used.

Sweep Type
The R&S FPL1000 automatically sets the optimal sweep type for the current measure-
ment (sweep or FFT). The sweep type cannot be defined manually.
Single Sweep / Run Single
After triggering, starts the number of sweeps set in "Sweep Count". The measurement
stops after the defined number of sweeps has been performed.
While the measurement is running, the "Single Sweep" softkey and the RUN SINGLE
key are highlighted. The running measurement can be aborted by selecting the high-
lighted softkey or key again.
Note: Sequencer. If the Sequencer is active, the "Single Sweep" softkey only controls
the sweep mode for the currently selected channel setup. However, the sweep mode
only takes effect the next time the Sequencer activates that channel setup, and only for
a channel-defined sequence. In this case, the Sequencer sweeps a channel setup in
single sweep mode only once.
Furthermore, the RUN SINGLE key controls the Sequencer, not individual sweeps.
RUN SINGLE starts the Sequencer in single mode.
If the Sequencer is off, only the evaluation for the currently displayed channel setup is
updated.
For details on the Sequencer, see Chapter 5.4.1, "The Sequencer Concept",
on page 85.
Remote command:
INITiate<n>[:IMMediate] on page 536
Continuous Sweep / Run Cont
After triggering, starts the sweep and repeats it continuously until stopped. This is the
default setting.
While the measurement is running, the "Continuous Sweep" softkey and the RUN
CONT key are highlighted. The running measurement can be aborted by selecting the
highlighted softkey or key again. The results are not deleted until a new measurement
is started.
Note: Sequencer. If the Sequencer is active, the "Continuous Sweep" softkey only
controls the sweep mode for the currently selected channel setup. However, the sweep
mode only takes effect the next time the Sequencer activates that channel setup, and
only for a channel-defined sequence. In this case, a channel setup in continuous
sweep mode is swept repeatedly.
