==Monitor Numbers==
If the number of the Ark's monitor came just from a guess, then I would like to point out that 7 to the power of -1 is actually 1 over 7, and not zero.

Mechanized Overlord
----
The numbers of the Moniters of Installations 01 and 00 do not make sense, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation#Powers_of_zero| (01-1)^7 = 0 and (00-1)^7 is undefined].

-Σ

==The Purpose of Monitors==
Just some rampant speculation, someone tell me if its just crazy, but I noticed on the transcrips of [[The Oracle (Level)]] that 343 Guilty Spark said that the Gas Mine "predates Installation Alpha by several hundred years." and at the same time, said he designed its outbreak management systems. It has also been said (Though i forget where) that the unsucessful research on the Gas Mine led the Forerunners to construct the Halos.

SO...

That could mean that 343 Guilty Spark was created before Installation 04 was ever thought of. Fans have thought for a long time that the Monitors were created to service the Installations, but if the Monitors were made before the Halos were ever though of, then the original purpose of the Monitors was not to service the Halos, but to simply combat the flood. It might seem unimportant, but it raises the possibility that there were many monitors created, for every flood research facility the forerunners ever made, and that seven of them were eventually repurposed to "monitor" the installations. so, there is some reasoning why a Monitor for the Ark could appear. 

Another random thought: On Bungie's home page, the navigation bar on the bottom of both the Halo and Halo 2 sections contains a picture of a blue monitor (obviosuly 343 Guilty Spark) but the Halo 3 section has a grey monitor in that place. Is it possible that Bungie is considering a monitor for the arc? after all, they may very well not put ''another'' halo into the third game. The idea of fighting on a halo may be boring to them at this point. -[[User:ED|ED]] 03:45, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

:That could explain the great difference in the numbers of the Monitors, as well as the seven connection. If the number seven had some value in Forerunner culture, they could have chosen the Monitors for the Halos based on that. And I think there will be some fighting on or around Installation 05 because most of the characters were left there. I predict an Arbiter level based on securing the Brute-held cruiser 'Vadumee went after. However, I do agree with the idea of a Monitor at the Ark. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 21:21, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

==Names==
Has anyone noticed that the first names of all Monitors is a word expressing negative feelings after doing wrong (Guilty;Penitent)?
:Yes. I guess the Forerunners were quite repentant. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 09:12, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

My friend thinks that the names of the monitors are all synonyms. Perhaps this is a good theory to note?--[[User:JohnSpartan117|JohnSpartan117]] 03:23, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

While this conversation is over a decade old, this does not seem true any longer. "Ebullient" and "exuberant" are not negative, certainly not in the vein of "guilty" and "penitent" unless one takes "negative" to mean "undesirable" in some sense. --anon, 2019

== 16807? ==

I think the grey monitor seen in the Halo 3 page may 16807, because the order seemed to lead to it. Any thoughts?

:I reckon you're right, because if Halo 3 lets us play on another Halo (for whatever purpose) then we would presumably meet its Monitor. I agree that it could probably be the Monitor of Installation 06 (Halo 1 took place on Installation 04; Halo 2 took place on Installation 05; it seems logical that Halo 3 could take place on Installation 06).

The games started on the fourth installation. What about the ones before those if it goes in that order?--[[User:Leckgolo434|prophit of war]] 23:04, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

If I recall it is mentioned in Halo The Flood that when A.I age the develope a quirky attitude.This is basically what happens with 343 Guily Spark as we se he is pretty much an aged A.I resulting in him being very quirky in attitude.Now if I recall and if I'm not mistaken 2401 pentitent tangent did not posses the same quirky attitude.Keep in mind it is mentioned that aged A.I develope a quirky attitude after long periods of time.Now think about this,considering the fact that 343 guilty spark has a quirky attitude and that 2401 penitent tanget posseses little if any quirkeness at all,would it become safe to say that 2401 penitent tanget is younger that 343 guilty spark.[[User:Halo3|Halo3]] 03:41, 10 June 2007 (UTC)--Halo3

== Idea for the names of the Monitors ==

I looked up the meaning of Guilty Spark and Penitent Tangent. Literally if you put them in Lamen's terms it means this: Guilty Spark = guilty off-shoot; Penitent Tangent = innocent off-shoot. Coincidence? I think NOT!! (okay maybe coincidence) --File:Final Goji.jpg|30px]] [[User:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">Lordofmonsterisland]]</font>[[User talk:Lordofmonsterisland| <font color="green">"Roar to me"</font>]] 23:25, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

== The Colors ==

As of now we know of 2 moniters, 1 red 1 blue. But Halo is constantly using the number 7 and coincidently there are 7 colors in the rainbow. on this I think its safe to assume that the other moniters will be the various colors of the raindbow, and if there is a moniter of the Ark it could possibly be white. -[[User:Ergna|Ergna]] 19:16, 13 September 2007 (UTC)-

== Unbiased Judge? ==

Is this a made-up name or there are sources that confirm it?

--[[User:Felix-157|Felix-157]] 19:30, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Same here. I want to know if this is fanmade or an actual name. And if it is the Monitor's actual name, well, there goes 49 Anomalous Matrix (my name for it). [[User:Sephirose|Sephirose]]

Or 49 Redeemed Vector -[[User:Felix-157|Felix-157]] 00:56, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

== The Rainbow Theory is Shot  ==

Notice anything interesting with 343 Guilty Spark after [SPOILER WARNING] he turns red, goes psycho, and kills Johnson?  Looks a lot like 2401 Penitent Tangent to me...which gives way to several possibilities:  Did PT go rampant in the past?  Did he, too, try to protect his ring from being destroyed in a similar fashion?  Maybe Installation 05 was destroyed too, and a replacement was constructed, and a similar thing happened in the past that happened in Halo 3, and PT went nuts and killed the reclaimer sent to light the ring prematurely!  That MUST be it.  I am a genius.

And yet a few naysayers have pointed out to me that GS goes red for a split-second when he fires his deathray-type beam, so maybe these musings are all for naught.  But then again, that could mean that PT could have been stuck in "attack mode" when captured by Gravemind.  What do you think?

-Metaridley

:A split second?  What are they talking about?  He stays red from the moment he fires his beam to when he talks to the Chief, turning blue for a bit, and then red again up until his death.  He's read for the rest of game play. [[User:Kyouraku-taichou|Kyouraku-taichou]] 23:40, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Maybe a Monitors default color is Blue and they turn Red when they are in danger or are about to attack? That would make sense considering TP was captured by the Gravemind. Explaining why he's Red.

==Offensive==
I thought the Monitors could attack, so why don't 343 Guilty Spark attack Tartarus when he was held by the Brutes? [[User:Master Chief Petty Officer|'''ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ''']] 13:42, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

:Probably because Tartarus was a badass and was going to "rip your [343 GS] eye from it's socket," if he said another word. Really though, his beam probably isn't that powerful, just powerful enough to defend himself, if needs be, until help or Sentinels arrive. -- <b>[[User:Dukester101|<font color="#000099">Dukester</font><font color="#990011">101</font>]] File:Us_flag.jpg|15px]] [[User talk:Dukester101|<sub><font color="#000000">''TALK''</font></sub>]]</b> 12:58, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Maybe it's a violation of protocol?

==Development names==
On the Halo 3 Legendary edition dvd, on the developers commentary Joseph Staten mentions the (joke) names of 2 other monitors; "7 Broken iPod" and "49 Fucking Lightbulb". I think it's mentioned during the credits of Halo 2. I don't know whether you want to include this or not because it's certainly not canon, but it was mentioned by Bungie.

==Mendicant Bias==
I notice that Mendicant Bias is listed as the Monitor of Installation 00.  Now, while he was released into the Ark's systems by Truth and possibly able to gain control of its functions we don't know if he suddenly became the Monitor.  Spark talks with another AI in one of the terminals, and this does not appear to be Mendicant but something else, perhaps the AI of the Ark.  Does anyone have any thoughts about this?  I don't know if he warrants Monitor status. [[User:Kyouraku-taichou|Kyouraku-taichou]] 21:08, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

*I noticed that Offensive bias is on the "Known monitors" section when Medicant is in the "Possible monitors" section. This doesn't make any sense as Offensive was sent to stop Medicant.

==8 colors for 8 monitors?==
For one thing it is very likely that the Ark has a monitor. Why wouldn't it. Anyway my main topic is the eye color. Due to the fact that 343 Guilty Spark and 2401 Penitent Tangent have blue and red as their eye color it may be possible that all monitors have their own invidivual eye color. And since there are technically 8 installations (including the Ark) it may be possible that each monitor has one of these colors: Red ([[2401 Penitent Tangent]]), Blue ([[343 Guilty Spark]]), Yellow, Green, Violet, Orange, Black, and White. [[User: ImmortalJoshua|ImmortalJoshua]]
:That was the theory we had when we saw Halo 2's cutscene.. but Halo 3 disprove this theory as we see that Monitors would go into Red when threatened. The reason why Halo 2 didn't show these colour changes could be because Bungie didn't had the time to program Penitent-Tangent to change his colour to blue. (I believe the map you said is [[Backwash]]).- <b>[[User:Subtank|<font color="gold"><font color="#FF4F00">5</font>əb<font color="#FF4F00">'7</font>aŋk</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Subtank|<font color="#FF4F00">7alk</font>]])</sup></b> 14:51, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

::In your last edit summary, you mentioned Backwash. How do you know he wasn't in combat mode then? The level description implies that the Flood is nearby. Canonically, he is captured by the Gravemind. His eye, like Spark when he got angry (so what if it was in Halo 3 - same storyline!), was red at that point. You're saying that it "may be possible", but you have no proof whatsoever, aside from the two Monitors shown in-game - and we already know that they change over to red when they get pissed off. 

::Also, black light is UV (ultraviolet) light, which isn't usually visible to the naked eye; it wouldn't make too much sense for a Monitor to have UV light as an eye color. <div style="font-variant:small-caps"><b>[[User:Smoke.|<font color="#666666">Smoke</font>]]</b></div> 14:57, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

==Rampancy==

Guilty Spark did NOT go rampant. His programming told him to protect his Halo at any cost, and that's what he did, just like in Halo 1.

:He was also programmed to protect the reclaimers and help them activate the ring. Having to ignore the last two to keep it intact shows that he has gone against his programming. He did nothing of the sort in the first game, anyway - he was hunting down John and Cortana because AI constructs aren't allowed in the computer core. Hell, he only tried to stop the detonation of the Autumn directly once - the rest of his time went to trying to stop it by telling John that the information in the ship's computer would be a waste if it was destroyed.-- [[User talk:Forerunner|Forerunner]] 17:50, 21 December 2010 (EST)

And if they were to fall into the hands of the Gravemind they would not have the location of the other installations. And to help these Monitors if they fell into the Gravemind they were programed to stop the Flood at all costs. And they also had a protocol that stated that if even a tiny wire on the ring got a tiny bit damaged the Monitor was to send at least 12 Constructors to examine, repair, see what caused the problem, send it back to a more intelligent computer, then that computer must type an at least 1,000 page report on it, then send that to a higher up Computer, then that computer analyzes it and fixes errors adds things and so forth, then it gets sent to a higher computer, then a higher one, then it gets sent to the Monitor of that Installation. The Monitor then examines it, then right a "simple" program about it(this simple program is so advanced it would take 500 normal computers to barely process it). It then sends it out to the Sentinel Constructor Factories to implement in all future Sentinels so they would know about this. The Monitor also sends all knowledge of this incident to the Knowing. They would also destroy every Flood Spore in an area. And if they didn't account for every microscopic Flood Spore then that whole area was destroyed. And another thing as I said above is that the Halo rings must be at perfect condition at all times in case of a Flood out brake. And the Monitor will do anything to make sure that the ring is always ready to fire. One particular example accord on Installation 04b when Avery Junior Johnson attempted to activate a partially constructed Halo. The Monitor of that Installation 343 Guilty Spark witnessed this. And 343 Guilty Spark couldn't let this happen. Because 343 Guilty Spark knew that it could destroy the Ark and then there would be nothing to make large-scale repairments to the Installations. And that would go against protocol and eventually all the Installations will need large-scale repaiments and there would be nothing to make the replacements! And then if there was a Flood out-brake the whole UNIVERSE could become consumed! So in order to preserve the Ark and the whole Universe 343 Guilty Spark attacked Avery Junior Johnson and successfully stopped this threat that could destroy the whole Universe and put his makers to shame. Unfortunately, soon afterwards, 343 Guilty was "deactivated". The Ring was forced to fire and the Ring was torn apart. The current status of the Ark is unknown, there is a 100% chance that the ring is severely damaged."'''''
