*Each unit in the table represents the position of a data point on a control chart, according to five ordinal levels based on Warning Limits (2SD) and Control Limits (3SD), as follows: <LCL (below the lower control limit), LCL-LWL (between the lower control and warning limits), LWL-UWL (between the lower and upper warning limits), UWL-UCL (between the upper warning and control limits), >UCL (above the upper control limit).
