How can I see and adjust (select) the focus squares when in the PDAF mode when using C-AF. I am using the 40-150 F2.8 which I assume supports PDAF mode and shooting ins C-AF, sequential mode

Just like in any other mode.

Choose ESP, 9-point, normal or small focus point and then move it where you want.

When you are shooting in H sequential mode with C-AF you can see on the screen the PDAF focus pattern.

and from that you can count the normal focus point grid size. So it is three to horizontally or three vertically from the center point when choosing what point to use.

If you use C-AF+Trk mode with H sequential and if the tracking gate goes outside of the PDAF area it will start using CDAF until it gets back to PDAF sensor area.
