Opening and closing the Monitor window

If the Monitor window is closed before you enter the SET AUTOMONITOR ON command, z/OS® Debugger opens the Monitor window and displays the name and value of the variables of statement you run in the automonitor section of the window.

If the Monitor window is open before you enter the SET AUTOMONITOR OFF command and you are watching the value of variables not monitored by SET AUTOMONITOR ON, the Monitor window remains open.
