Prevent PI-TAGs to be overwritten with new data for certain time range

Normally our TAGs are filled with data coming from an analysis (or PI-Equation) by snapshot-data or recalculated data. But sometimes we have to do manual corrections due to data loss and have to write data to this PI-TAGs manually. And we are not ...
