# TSAdjointMonitorSet
Sets an ADDITIONAL function that is to be used at every timestep to display the iteration's progress.
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscts.h"
PetscErrorCode TSAdjointMonitorSet(TS ts, PetscErrorCode (*adjointmonitor)(TS, PetscInt, PetscReal, Vec, PetscInt, Vec *, Vec *, void *), void *adjointmctx, PetscErrorCode (*adjointmdestroy)(void **))
```
Logically Collective
## Input Parameters
- ***ts -*** the `TS` context obtained from `TSCreate()`
- ***adjointmonitor -*** monitoring routine
- ***adjointmctx -*** [optional] user-defined context for private data for the
monitor routine (use `NULL` if no context is desired)
- ***adjointmonitordestroy -*** [optional] routine that frees monitor context
(may be `NULL`)
## Calling sequence of `adjointmonitor`
```none
PetscErrorCode adjointmonitor(TS ts, PetscInt steps, PetscReal time, Vec u, PetscInt numcost, Vec *lambda, Vec *mu, void *adjointmctx)
```
- ***ts -*** the `TS` context
- ***steps -*** iteration number (after the final time step the monitor routine is called with a step of -1, this is at the final time which may have
been interpolated to)
- ***time -*** current time
- ***u -*** current iterate
- ***numcost -*** number of cost functionos
- ***lambda -*** sensitivities to initial conditions
- ***mu -*** sensitivities to parameters
- ***adjointmctx -*** [optional] adjoint monitoring context
## Note
This routine adds an additional monitor to the list of monitors that
already has been loaded.
## Fortran Note
Only a single monitor function can be set for each `TS` object
