Dwell Time
Dwell time is the minimum period of time after the settling time that
the synthesizer will remain at its current state. The synthesizer can
accept a Trig In trigger during or after the dwell time, but it will not act
until after the dwell time is complete.
Dwell time can be set by an external host computer to different values.
These values of dwell time control how long the trigger outputs are
asserted. The synthesizer will wait the dwell time before going to the
next frequency or power or both, or when in list mode. The synthesizer
will wait the dwell time even if a new trigger is received before the end
of the dwell time is completed.
For complete specifications, refer to: “Specifications and
Characteristics” on page 6-1.
