Associated with: Trends
The Unvalidated Data state is indicated by a red marker (by default) on a Trend’s trace.
The color indicates that a trace value has not yet been checked and defined as being valid by an operator or engineer. The state only applies to systems on which manual Historic Validation is enabled (see Enable or Disable Manual Historic Data Validation in the ClearSCADA Guide to Server Administration).
For data sources that exist in the ClearSCADA database, ClearSCADA obtains the marker color from the data source's Color Palette. The exception to this is if ClearSCADA is unable to obtain the marker color from the server (for example, if communications with the server is interrupted when a Trend is redrawn). In such a situation, ClearSCADA uses the marker color that is specified in the Options window (see Display the Options Window in the ClearSCADA Guide to Client Administration). ClearSCADA also uses the marker color from the Options window for data sources that are from a non-ClearSCADA database (for example, another OPC database).
