2 Select the compressor of interest at the compressor level in the hierarchy. See the screen shot to the right.

3 Right click on the compressor to bring up the pop-up menu. Left click on “Create Plot Sets” and left click on “Both”. Wait for the computer to complete the tasks.

4 This will create the recommended plot sets. Then any additional plots that you prefer, such as trend plots, rod position, or rod load can be created from the machine hierarchy and added to the plot group.
