Managing Preset Spans
Custom spans can be created and stored for later recall. After creating a custom span, it will be
displayed in the list of available tuner spans.
1. From the Main Menu select Setup or press F1.
2. Select the Spans icon from the Setup Sub-Menu.
3. In the Select Span dialog box that appears, select Manage.
4. In the Manage User Spans dialog box that appears, select New.
5. In the Edit Span form that opens, enter a name for the custom span, a start frequency, and a
stop frequency. Press OK.
6. The new custom tuner span will now be available in the list of tuner spans.
Several other user span maintenance tasks can also be performed from the Manage User Spans dialog
box:
• Edit: Allows you to edit the configuration for the highlighted custom span.
• Delete: Deletes the highlighted custom span.
• Import: Imports user spans from a previously exported user spans file.
• Export: Exports current user spans, including any custom spans, to a comma separated values
file (.csv).
• Defaults: If any of the factory default tuner spans get deleted, this function restores them so
that they are once again displayed in the list of available tuner spans. Defaults will also remove
any custom spans that have been created. If you have custom spans that you wish to save,
export them before using the defaults function, so that you can easily restore them afterwards.
Setting up the Display
Several items on the display can be customized depending on the information that needs to be seen on
the screen:
Showing/Hiding the Trace Legend
A legend is available to help identify traces on the screen. The legend is turned on by default and is
located in the upper left corner of the spectral graph (see page 31).
