Select one of five control chart types: Indiv and MR (Individual Measurement and Moving Range); XBar and R; XBar and S; XBar, MR, and R; or XBar, MR, and S. The XBar, MR, and R control chart and the XBar, MR, and S control chart are also referred to as 3-way charts. For more information about statistical details, see Statistical Details for the Control Chart Builder Platform in the Quality and Process Methods book.
Specify a value that controls the sensitivity of the Shift Graph. Shift Threshold is set to three by default. After outlier removal, the Shift Graph shows a plot of the time occurrence of all process shifts that exceed the number of within-sigma units specified by the Shift Threshold. See Shift Graph.
Specify a value that controls the sensitivity of outlier removal for detection of large recent shifts and for the Shift Graph. Outlier Threshold is set to five by default. If the number of within sigma units from an observation to both of its neighboring observations exceeds the specified Outlier Threshold, that observation is replaced with a value that is one within-sigma unit away from its closest neighboring observation. See Shift Magnitudes and Positions.
Enables you to change the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) weight used in the Shift Graph. See Shift Magnitudes and Positions.
Enables you to import historical control limits and specification limits from a data table. When you select this option and click OK in the launch window, a Choose limits table window appears. Once you choose a limits tables and click OK, a Limits Specification window appears. Assign columns in your limits table to appropriate roles and click OK. For details. See Limits Table.
