The recommended value for the start frequency is determined by IF BW. When you
select a value for IF BW, the system will automatically test the start frequency.
⚫ If the start frequency you set is smaller than its recommended value, the
recommended start frequency prevails.
⚫ If the start frequency you set is greater than its recommended value, the system
will take your current setting as the start frequency.
The following table shows the relationship between the recommended value and the
IF BW for different measurement items.
