A Sweep value which will be set and applied to a device or a Module. Some Modules only have a single Sweep value which basically means that they do not increase the complexity or dimensionality of the measurement. Of course it much more interesting if a Measurement Class has several Sweep values for which a measurement is done.
Besides Sweep values, there exist Measurement values which are the values being read back from your devices. In some case the Sweep value and the Measurement value might be identical.
Modules having an own tab often allow the user to choose how the Sweep values are created.
Sweep editor
The Sweep editor is tabular input dialog to create complex lists of Sweep values.
SweepBox
The SweepBox is a simple input field where you can place some comma separated values. This feature is of particular importance if strings [1] are needed as SweepValue.
SweepScript
The SweepScript allows you to load the Sweep values from a text file
External
A Sweep value can also be taken from an external source, being either a Measurement value or a Sweep value from another Module. This feature allows you to implement an interaction between the items of the sequencer. For example, the Sweep value Integration time of a Spectrometer could depend on the signal of a photodiode measured by a SMU.
