The option creates two multivariate control charts: T Square with Big Principal Components and T Square with Small Principal Components. Suppose that you enter r as the number of major components when you first select the option. The chart with Big Principal Components is based on the r principal components corresponding to the r largest eigenvalues. These are the r components that explain the largest amount of variation, as shown in the Percent and Cum Percent columns in the Principal Components: on Covariances reports. The chart with Small Principal Components is based on the remaining principal components.
For a given subgroup, its T2 value in the Big Principal Components chart and its T2 value in the Small Principal Components chart sum to its overall T2 statistic presented in the T2 with All Principal Components report. For more information about how the partitioned T2 values are calculated, see Kourti, T. and MacGregor, J. F. (1996).
