1. Add the plugin to the panel.
2. Right-click on the added plugin, select Properties to open the settings window.

There are three sections:

1. In the first section, specify which device monitor, the label and the update interval in seconds;
2. In the second section, specify which activity to monitor; selecting I/O transfer (it is the default) will alow for inserting a max rate;
3. In the last section, if a combined bar is used for reading and writing or two separate bars; or, if a single bar is preferred, the bar orders and colors can be customised.
