Predefined flag sources to be used as custom flag source. A flag source indicates the reason for the latest update of a flag in the timeseries. By using a custom flag source it can be more accurately be tracked down what action caused the flag to be doubtful or unreliable. Custom flag sources can be defined by the configurator and for instance be used in some secondary validation checks to indicate the reason for altering a flag. The value of the flag attribute (100-255) is actually written to the timeseries in the database. Once a flag is written to the database it is intended that the use of this flag number remains fixed forever whereas the id, name and description can be edited.
