How to Use QI Macros Pre Control Chart Template in Excel
- QI Macros installs a new tab on Excel's menu:
- Click on QI Macros menu tab, select the Control Chart Templates drop-down, and then choose PreControl Chart to open the template.
- Enter the upper and lower specification limits into the data sheet at H1 and J1:
- Add data as you begin to run the process.
- Evaluate the process much like you would a control chart. Most points should land in the green or yellow. Too many in the red: Danger! You may miss customer specifications.
- Data points in the yellow zones represent that the user should proceed with caution and potentially readjust your process.
- Data points in the red zones imply out of control conditions. It is recommended that the user should stop and reset their process or make corrections.
- Red and Yellow Zones are calculated by dividing the Center Line (half of Green Zone) and the Upper and Lower Spec Limits in two.
Tip: Format Y axis: You may need to change the max and min amounts on the Y axis to properly display the areas for each color band. Just right click on the Y axis and select Format Axis then Axis Options.
