# ME Throughput Monitor

<GameScene zoom="8" background="transparent">
<ImportStructure src="../structure/throughput_monitors.snbt"></ImportStructure>
<IsometricCamera yaw="195" pitch="30" />
</GameScene>

Throughput Monitors are a subtype of monitor. They provide the same functionalities a <ItemLink id="ae2:storage_monitor" />
does, with the addition of a throughput meter. I will keep track of a single item/fluid type and monitor changed to its
quantity, displaying the amount per second to the user.

It does *not* require a channel.

## Keybinds

*   Right-click with an item or double-right-click with a fluid container to set the monitor to that item/fluid.
*   Right-click with an empty hand to clear the monitor.
*   Shift-right-click with an empty hand to lock the monitor.

## Throughput Monitor Configurator

<ItemImage id="advanced_ae:throughput_monitor_configurator" scale="4"></ItemImage>

The Throughput monitor configurator is a tool that can be used to change the presented data. Right-clicking a monitor
with one in hand will cycle between three options:

* Items per tick
* Items per second
* Items per minute

Note: It may take some time before the readings stabilize when changing the modes, so don't trust initial values!
