Default Need some INPA screenshot help

I posted this on another forum and couldn't find anyone who knows what the realtime INPA screenshots are telling me. Does someone here know what the realtime monitors on the attached screenshots are telling me?
"I searched and couldn't find my answer so I need some help INPA experts. I changed and registered my battery in December. Took the car to get smogged 2 weeks ago and they said the monitors weren't ready because of the battery change. Brought it home and checked it myself and found 2 monitors not ready. 2 weeks of driving it (misc. drive cycles) to turn on the monitors and still have 2 not on. One screen shot shows the after cat O2 heaters full blast, is that normal when running? Another screen shot shows cylinders 1,3,5 registering results and 2,4,6 registering zero, that can't be the correct expectation is it? The last one is the readiness monitors which says the parts monitoring is not up yet, is that due to the issues in screenshots 1 and 2?"
I also added block 6 values in case it help answer questions.
Thanks for any and all help.

IIRC there is an activate or status button on bottom of screen in my version of INPA, where you can activate the sensors....

Thanks for your reply. So if I understand you correctly, the activate button turns on all monitors without having to drive it around doing drive cycles to turn the monitors on? If that's the case, that is sweet!! That saves a ton of time, gas and stress!
Thanks
