### Fields: Monitor Status

The fields in the upper half of the Monitor Status window are explained in the following table:

Field | Meaning
--- | ---
Task Name | Name of the Monitor main task. The syntax (explained in Direct Command Syntax) is as follows:
    {task-prefix}{task-number}
Example: If the task prefix is `E01` and the task number is `1`, the subtask name will be displayed as `E0101`. For further information, see also Monitor Task Prefix.
Status | Protected field showing the current status of the Entire Operations Monitor.
Last active at | Date and time of the last Monitor activity. See also Date and Time Formats in the User's Guide.
Wait Time | Interval between Entire Operations Monitor working cycles in seconds. When you start the Monitor, the value is taken from the Global Monitor Wait Time defined in the Monitor Defaults.

### Columns: Monitor Tasks

The columns in the Monitor tasks section of the Monitor Status window are explained in the following section.

Column | Meaning
--- | ---
Task | Name of the Monitor (sub)task. For further information, see also Task Name.

Started | Time at which the task was started.
Active | Time of the last activity.
Wait Time | Active Monitor task wait time. This value is modifiable. It can be defined individually for each Monitor task. Values changed here are in effect for the current Monitor session only. The value Global Monitor Wait Time from the Monitor Defaults will be used if no value is specified here. For details, see Monitor Defaults. The default wait time modification (for all Monitor sessions) is described in Fields: Monitor Defaults - Monitor Task Profile.
