 === Purpose ===
-Opens a separate '''''Secondary Window''''' of the same type (Map or Information Grid) as that currently displayed in the '''''[[EMO:Main Window Display Panel|Main Window Display Panel]].'''''
+Opens a separate window showing the equation constraints that are active (but not necessarily binding) in a trading period.  The data relates to the current Data Source, i.e. Market, Scenario, Forecast or Powerflow, that you are viewing in main Display Panel.  A constraint may be in a Scenario, for example, but selected as not to be active, so it wouldn't show up in this window.

		+	== The POCP Outages Option ==
		+
		+	=== Purpose ===
		+	Opens a window that shows POCP outages downloaded by Energy Link and made available to EMO. The POCP data is available in the files that are downloaded from the Energy Link web site along with grid, constraint and reserves data.
		+
		+	The POCP Outages window shows the same data that is available on POCP itself, but in an easily filtered and sortable format, in a handy place if you are setting up EMO Scenarios of Forecasts to study the impact of future planned outages.
		+
		+	As of February 2014, this is a brand new feature in EMO. As much as we would like to be able to translate POCP outage data directly into offers and grid outages in EMO for you, we're not currently attempting this step because the names of entities used in POCP data does not always match up exactly with the data available to EMO, particularly in respect of grid elements.
		+
		+	To use the POCP Outages window, you need to:
		+	*Select whether you want to see generator outages or transmission outages - use tabs at top of data grid;
		+	*Set the start and end date and trading periods;
		+	*Sort the data in the grid by double clicking on a column heading.
		+
		+
		+	== The Active Equations Option ==
		+
		+	=== Purpose ===
		+	Opens a separate '''''Secondary Window''''' of the same type (Map or Information Grid) as that currently displayed in the '''''[[EMO:Main Window Display Panel\|Main Window Display Panel]].'''''

−	~~== The Watch Lists Option ==~~
−	Watch Lists support the function of '''''Watch Windows''''' which allow you to keep information of interest visible on-screen as you move through different features of the Presentation Interface. A Watch Window contains text tables of information about '''''Modelled Items''''' that automatically update as you change the '''''Current Data Set'''''.
−
−	A Watch List is a 'template' specifying the elements included in any Watch Window based with the List. The Edit Watch Lists function allows you to maintain your own set of Watch Lists for items that you want to monitor routinely.
−
−	~~=== Watch Window ===~~
−	A Watch Window contains a subset of all instances of a specific '''''Modelled Item'''''. A window can display instances for only one modelled item. Hence it is possible to talk of a Circuits Watch Window, or a Nodes Watch Window. Watch Window contents are automatically updated when the '''''Current Data Set''''' is changed. Several Watch Windows can be opened simultaneously to display instances from either the same or different modelled items.
−
−	~~A Watch Window can be opened for any one of the following modelled Items:~~
−	*Nodes
−	*Substations
−	*Regions
−	*Units
−	*Generators
−	*Circuits
−	*Equations
−
−	~~=== Watch List ===~~
−	A Watch List is a previously prepared list of instances that you will often want to see together in a Watch Window. Watch Windows based on a Watch List can be opened from the '''''Watch List Window.''''' Watch Lists are also accessible in drop down lists in any open Watch Window. Watch Lists are persistent between ''EMarketOffer'' sessions for each Client workstation installation.
−
−	~~----~~
−	NOTE: Because ''EMarketOffer'' allows you to create your own instances of Modelled Items (e.g. new Nodes and Circuits) the set of all instances for a Modelled Item is unbounded. It is therefore possible to create a Watch List containing Item instances that are not common to all Data Sources. Watch Lists can be applied to any Data Source, however ''EMarketOffer'' simply ignores those instances in a Watch List for which the Current Data Set has no information. For example a Watch List created with a user-defined injection Node for use in some '''''Forecast Definitions''''' will ignore the Node (i.e. will it not appear) in a Watch Window based on this List when it is applied to historical (Market) data.
−	~~----~~
−
−	A Watch Window displays important attributes for a list of specific instances of a Modelled Item. The instances in a list are a subset of all instances of that Modelled Item. Only instances of one Modelled Item can be displayed in any one Watch Window.
−
−	~~The following list defines the items for which you can open Watch Windows:~~
−	*Node
−	*Substation
−	*Region
−	*Unit
−	*Generator
−	*Circuit
−	*Equation Constraints
−	*Reserve Region
−	*Company
−

−	~~==== Access ====~~
−	~~Using the Open Watch List Button on the Watch List Window or when an Item is added to the default Watch List invoked through the right-click menu on the Map.~~
