The security monitor is your window to the rest of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. It allows you to view various camera feeds throughout the building, tracking the animatronics' movements. It's a double-edged sword: essential for tracking, but it consumes power and prevents you from seeing your immediate surroundings.
