### Starting the event monitor

To launch the event monitor

• select GoTo Event Monitor or simply click on in the action shortcut bar.

The event monitor uses two windows that open when you start the applet: the event monitor console window and the event monitor applet window. Both windows are required by the event monitor to work properly, so don’t close either of them unless you want to shut down the event monitor. The console window will only display some system messages and may hence be minimized to reduce the screen space occupied. Starting the event monitor may take a moment or two. During this process you may be asked to provide your user name and password for your BSCW server.
