PowerTools Pro contains a diagnostic utility called the Watch Window. The Watch Window
can be used while PowerTools Pro is running and the PC is online with the FM-3 module. The
Watch Window allows the user to monitor the status of all their desired system parameters in
one location. An example of the watch window is found in Figure 99 below.
To setup the Watch Window, select Tools\Watch Window from the PowerTools Pro menu
bar. If not online with the module, Watch Window will be a greyed-out choice on the menu.
Upon selecting Watch Window, the following window will appear.

The Select Drive Parameters window as seen in Figure 100 allows the user to specify which
parameters are to be seen in the Watch Window. To select a parameter for the Watch
Window, simple click once on the parameter and it will be added to the Watch Window. The
parameters already in the Watch Window will be highlighted in the Select Drive Parameters
window.
