Sensor Analysis Mono Setting

Hi guys, I have a ZWO 1600mm Pro, 12bit ADC, I wanted to do a test using Sensor Analysis but in the setting under Capture Format and Area,,
I believe that I need to use MONO12 however the options are MONO8 or 16. Am i missing something at this stage??

Purchased Pro License -missing feature like Smart Histogram
