Changes

To select a parameter to sweep, click on the parameter's name in the list table to select and highlight it. The name of the selected parameter shows up in the "Parameter Setup" section of the dialog. Initially, it is designated as "Not a Sweep Parameter" by a respective radio button. There are two other radio buttons to change this designation: "Sweep Parameter" and "Values List". Choose Sweep Parameter if you want to vary the parameter at equal steps by linear, decade or octave scales. With a linear scale, the Start, Stop, and Step Size define the first value, the maximum value and the increment to each step. The above example will step the resistance values at 1K, 3K, 5K, 7K, and 9K, for a total of 5 steps. Note that 10K is actually never reached since that the last step was 9K and stepping by 2K would result in 11K, which is larger than the maximum step value specified. After you enter these values, click the button labeled "Accept Changes". The selected parameter and its range description are added to the "Active Sweep [[Parameters]] List" at the bottom of the dialog. This table also shows the total number of test runs for each sweep parameter.
