Validity Marker Description
Two bits signal the Flag status which means four different Flag values 0, 1, 2, 3 can be
set for a Flag Point (e.g. $F2). If no Flag address has been defined in Function
DPO,GEN then Flag value 0 is given for each logged value.
Only one Flag address can be defined in Operation GEN. The Flag value must be set in
the associated Flag Point.
This "Hnd" marker is set if a manual entry has been made through Operation MOD.
This "Lim" marker is set if, for example, a ME point violates its HIL or LOL limits.
