# Run and Monitoring
The Monitoring window is intentionally simpler than the Setup window.
Its purpose is to **run a protocol that has already been created**, following the order of the processes listed
under **Active Processes**.
The buttons shown in the figure above is described as:
* 
**Show Parameters Summary**
Opens a read-only view with all predefined parameters (main and process parameters), including their current values.
* 
**Custom Data-Save Script**
Opens the editor for a custom data-saving script.
Use this to define how experimental data should be stored (e.g., file format, naming, metadata),
based on a predefined class/template provided by the application.
* 
**Start protocol**
Starts the execution of the full protocol, running all processes in the order shown in **Active Processes**.
* 
**Stop protocol**
Stops the currently running protocol execution.
## Running individual processes
In addition to starting the full protocol, each process listed under **Active Processes** includes its own option/menu
to run that process individually.
This is useful for testing a single process step without executing the full sequence.
## 🧑🏫 Tutorial Example
For this tutorial, you only need to click **Start Protocol**. The application will execute the processes listed in
**Active Processes** in order.
