# 8.2.12 - WITS

The options in this section allow the user to open the Serial WITS, WITSML or MQTT WITS dialogs without needing to access the Slide Sheet. When accessed in this way the WITS data cannot be used to record the slide sheet or receive surveys, and is purely used to forward EDR data to the server.

The user should click on an actual well or survey in the Object Explorer and then click on one of the  WITS options in the ribbon. To change which well is selected, the user should click on the new actual well/survey in the Object explorer and click on the desired WITS option a second time. The selected well can be seen in the status box.

Only one WITS reader can be opened at a time. The user cannot open a WITS reader via the Slide Sheet for the same well, if it already open in a reader via the Home ribbon, or vice versa.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.innova-drilling.com/introduction/innova-engineering-manual/well-seeker-x-manual/8.0-menu-ribbons/8.2-home/8.2.12-wits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
