The Station Validation tab displays the configuration for the validation checks that the system performs against incoming data.
When enabled, incoming data undergoes a series of checks against discrete values, historical values, and station averages/totals. The outcome of these tests determines the quality of each measurement reading for the purposes of identifying and editing problematic or erroneous readings. You can configure station data validation check settings on a per-station basis. The Problematic Context for Station window indicates whether or not data passed a validation check.

Average Pressure Check |
The system checks whether the average, flow-weighted pressure at a station differs from the pressure at each connected meter by more than a configured tolerance. |
|
Enable |
Select to enable the Average Pressure Check. |
|
Tolerance (%) |
Enter the percentage amount by which the pressure value at the station can exceed the pressure at the meter. |
|
Average Temperature Check |
The system checks whether the average, flow-weighted temperature at a station differs from the temperature at each connected meter by more than a configured tolerance. |
|
Enable |
Select to enable the Average Temperature Check. |
|
Tolerance (%) |
Enter the percentage amount by which the temperature value at the station can exceed the temperature at the meter. |
|
Station Run Ratio Check |
Depending on the configuration as detailed below, the system performs one of the following checks:

|
Enable |
Select to enable the Fixed Run Ratio check, or, if Dynamic Run Ratio is also selected, the Dynamic Run Ratio check. |
|
Dynamic Run Ratio |
Select to enable the Dynamic Run Ratio check. |
