The viewing light box may or may not have the same spectral characteristics as the light box on which the color patches were measured. This may produce an unwanted color shift when the color-managed work is displayed on the viewing light box.

If you do not have access to the viewing light box, or do not know what the viewing light box will be, use the Same as the measurement light box check box. This will use the light box measurements taken earlier.
