1. Measurement Software Looping (1)

Provides an Advance looping features 9 looping parameters available to iterate the test sequence
Example: Channel Number, GSM MS TX PL, GPRS MS TX PL Index, Supply Voltage, Temperature and etc

Using parameters : Loop Start, Loop Step and Loop Stop

Using Separated Sequence Definite the sequence in comma separated format

Using Loop List to define multiple sequences Sequence can be defined in:
Simple Range : <Start>-<Stop> Complex Range : <Start>:<Step>:<Stop>
