The Monitor is your primary surveillance tool, allowing you to view security cameras throughout the pizzeria. It's accessed by clicking the camera button on the right side of your screen or by pressing 'S' (or 'Z' in some versions). When the monitor is active, you'll see a map of the pizzeria with various camera feeds. Its main uses are:

  • Tracking Animatronics: Observe animatronic movements to anticipate their arrival.
  • Winding the Music Box: Crucially, you must be on CAM 11 (Prize Corner) to wind the Music Box, which prevents The Puppet from activating.
  • Checking for Golden Freddy: Sometimes, Golden Freddy can be seen on CAM 07 (Game Area) before appearing in your office.
However, using the monitor leaves you vulnerable. You cannot use the flashlight or the Freddy Fazbear Head while the monitor is up, and animatronics can still move into your office. Minimize monitor usage to only what's necessary, and be quick to close it if you hear or see a threat.
