The Watch Manager allows you to visibly distinguish synchronizations that meet criteria that you specify. For example, you might want to highlight big synchronizations, long synchronizations, small synchronizations that take a long time, or synchronizations that receive warnings.

To open the Watch Manager, open the MobiLink Monitor and then click Tools » Watch Manager.

The left pane of the Watch Manager contains a list of all available watches. The right pane contains a list of active watches. To add or remove a watch from the active list, select a watch in the left pane and click the appropriate button.

There are three predefined watches (Active, Completed, and Failed). You can edit predefined watches to change the way they are displayed, and you can deactivate them by removing them from the right pane.

No synchronizations are displayed in the chart unless they meet the conditions of a watch. If you disable all watches (by removing them from the Current Watches list), then no synchronizations are shown in the Chart pane or the Overview pane.

The order of watches in the right pane is important. Watches that are closer to the top of the list are processed first. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to organize the order of watches in the right pane.

You can use the predefined watches, and create other watches. To edit a watch condition, remove it and then add the new watch condition.

When a new MobiLink Monitor connects to the same MobiLink server, it shows up as a short synchronization in any MobiLink Monitors that are already connected. The MobiLink Monitor synchronization has the version name for_ML_Monitor_only. You can hide this MobiLink Monitor synchronization with a watch.
