This element has the following attributes:

This section allows you to define an individual rule set, which you can apply to one or more data series (Charts > Chart > Elements > Data series > Applied rule sets > Reference). You can set a scope, such as a time period, select a method to calculate the mean and standard deviation, add standard WECO and Nelson rules, and add customizable Advanced rules.

This element has the following attributes:

This section allows you to define rule sets to be applied to monitor data in this Control chart document. For each Rule set, you can select methods to calculate the mean and standard deviation, you can add standard WECO and Nelson rules, and you can add customizable Advanced rules. Once you have defined one or more rule sets, you can apply them to monitor individual data series. For this purpose, you add an Applied rule sets element to the Data series (Chart > Elements > Data series > Applied rule sets). The Applied rule sets element then allows you to reference one or more rule sets to be applied in monitoring this Data series.
