The preview diagram displays a zero span measurement at the center frequency with
the defined RBW and sweep time.
For details see
chapter 6.6.1.3, "Determining the Parameters in Preview Mode"
Note:
The zero span settings refer only to the preview diagram. The main diagram
remains unchanged.
The trigger and gate settings are applied to the measurement when the dialog box is
closed or "Update Main Diagram" is selected.
If preview mode is switched off, any changes to the settings in this dialog box are
applied to the measurement diagram directly. In this case, the zero span settings for
the preview diagram are not displayed.
For information on the zero span settings see:
