Edge CTS, What to Monitor?

I just deleted and woder what you are monitoring? I used to monitor all the DPF stuff and a couple different EGT's. Since those no longer apply, what should I monitor? Looking for those with deleted trucks & using the Edge to monitor? I will have my EGT sensor in soon. But what else is wOrth watching?

i looked at egt,boost,trans temp, coolant temp, oil temp, fuel rate...only thing that really mattered to me was the egt probe. everything else was just to fill up the space on the screen.

Don't know if you know this or not, but if you are on the 5 gauge screen, take your finger and reach up and pull down the down arrow. A much larger group of PIDs will show up where you can monitor more than what they say it will do.....

I know my CTS has 3 different screens. One screen monitors 5 things, another monitors like 10 & the last shows pitch and roll and I think shows g-force and a couple of your choosing I usually use the 5 screen. Seems like now I am just trying g to fill space.

Just like AzBlueOval said. pitch and roll, and several others all at once....Like here. This is the one I leave it on now.

I usually use the screen to read (I think) 5 PIDs. Guess there is really nothing to monitor now. I have the spaces filled with coolant temp, Trans temp, oil temp, Turbo boost. All of which I have gauges for. Only thing worth it will be EGT'S I guess.
