Steam Turbine Control Chart shows out-of-control conditions occurring at observations 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8. This result implies that these observations do not conform to the historical data from Steam Turbine Historical.jmp, and that the process should be further investigated. To find an assignable cause, you might want to examine individual univariate control charts or perform another univariate procedure.
Launch the Multivariate Control Chart platform by selecting Analyze > Quality And Process > Control Chart > Multivariate Control Chart.
