> # Using the Monitors window In the Monitors window, you can monitor the current status of all sensors, solenoid valves, digital input / output signals and control elements in real time. For this purpose, the Monitors window is divided into the following tabs:
> Sensors | Displays the signals / statuses of the speed and temperature sensors in the transmission.
> Speeds | Displays the transmission and vehicle speeds.
> Control elements | Displays the current positions of the accelerator pedal, brake switch/pedal and the gear range selector switch.
> Actuators | Displays the current status of the solenoid valves in the transmission.
> Digital I/O | Displays the digital signals activated in the dataset and their current status.
> Texts | Displays the most important current messages.
| How to open the Monitors window:
Click the Service and then the Monitor 1 button in the main window. There is an automatic check for an existing communication with a connected transmission control unit. If communication with a transmission control unit is not possible, this will be indicated by a at the bottom right of the window. This message is also displayed when communication with a connected transmission control unit has been interrupted. For help in the event of communication problems, please refer to: Communication problems. Once you have eliminated the communication problems, click "Yes" if ALADIN is to re-establish communication with a transmission control unit. An existing communication is shown by the progress bar.
| The general display in Monitors:
> The general display is shown in every tab of the Monitors window. On top, there are four symbols for:
> Symbol | Description |
> | General transmission fault. |
> | General retarder fault. |
> | Transmission temperature too high. |
> | Retarder temperature too high. |
> Below, there is the real-time display of the following signals:
> Signal | Description |
> n1 | Engine speed / transmission input speed |
> n2 | Transmission output speed |
> n3 | Turbine speed |
> FP | Accelerator pedal position |
> BP | Brake pedal position |
> Time | Display of the sample time (for debugging tasks only) |
