CW Pulse Mode

CW Pulse mode configures the NanoVNA-F V3 to output a pulsed signal rather than a continuous wave. This is useful for testing pulse-sensitive circuits or generating a known pulse-modulated RF signal.

Enable CW Pulse mode

1. Tap STIMULUS → CW PULSE.
2. Set the desired pulse frequency using the on-screen keypad.
3. Tap Ok to confirm.

The output signal is a pulse signal, not a pure continuous wave. The pulse frequency you enter determines the repetition rate of the pulsed output.

Caution

Despite the name, CW Pulse does not produce a standard CW (continuous wave) signal. The output is a pulsed waveform. If you need a true CW output, use the Signal Generator instead.

Return to normal sweep

Exit the CW Pulse screen to return to normal sweep operation. You can also tap STIMULUS → PAUSE SWEEP to toggle between paused and active sweep states.

Tip

CW Pulse mode is accessible from the STIMULUS menu alongside the signal generator and pause controls. All three affect the sweep behavior and share the same menu area.
