14 14  CENTO software can work with a variety of metering devices that have the ability to measure and store power and power profiles. The metering function is enabled by adding the metering protocol corresponding to the device on the **Device editing** page (Settings > Devices, tags, channels > Devices), then, similar to other polling protocols, the parameters of communication with the device (RTU address, TCP/UDP port, timeout and number of connection attempts) and scheduled polling parameters (cron of CENTO rules) are specified, to configure electricity metering, the file number is specified in the "File#" field,  which stores power and power profiles.
