287 -With the appropriate rights, the User can make a manual entry of metering data. To do this, you hover the cursor over the desired cell in the table, perform a left click of the mouse and enter a new value, after which the save value icon appears on the right side of the input field [[image:Screenshot 2025-11-30 at 16.51.39.png]]. Press it or //Enter// on your keyboard, and the value goes to the CENTO database. For devices where only manual data entry is provided, CENTO has developed a procedure for filling the cells between two manual entries. If readings are recorded at 10:00 a.m. and then again at 8:00 p.m., the system automatically fills in the readings for all intermediate intervals. For electricity metering channels, the system additionally calculates and populates the corresponding energy and power values.
