VTS enables you to enter data for a piece of equipment manually when data ceases to be reported by VTS due to an error (for further information, see Invalid Data.) When you enter manual data for a tag associated with a piece of equipment or an equipment process, the system stops reading data from that equipment until the manual data value is removed.
Note: The ability to enter manual data for a tag is a user privilege that may not have been granted to you by your VTS developer. If you have not been granted the user privilege to enter manual data, the "Manual Data" option of the shortcut menu is disabled.
Instructions for entering and removing manual data values using the shortcut menu are described in the sections that follow.
