443 +CENTO has the ability to create calculated accounting channels. A calculated channel can be created either based on the values of other channels or on the basis of tag values. In order to create a calculation channel, you need to go to the link "Settings" - "Devices, tags, channels" - "Calculation channels" (see Fig. 2.15).

447 +Fig.2.15 – List of calculation channels
448 +
449 +On the "Billing channels" tab, when you select one or more devices, all billing channels for metering these devices are displayed in a tabular form. In this table, you can perform the following operations for each parameter separately:
450 +
451 +* Create a channel by pressing a button [[image:1762754384286-528.png||height="24" width="121"]] and [[image:1762754384287-151.png||height="26" width="114"]] in the upper right corner of the screen.
452 +* Go to the channel editing window by left-clicking on the tag name or tag ID.
453 +* View channel values and go to the graph page of the required parameter by clicking the left mouse button on the value.
454 +* enabling and disabling channel polling by switches in the "Status" column.
455 +* viewing the status of the settlement channel.
456 +* viewing the time of the last update of the tag (channel) poll – the date and time (in the format "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss") of the last successful receipt of the tag (channel) value (the tag or channel value itself may not have changed).
457 +* copying and deleting channels by pressing buttons [[image:1762754384287-453.png||height="21" width="21"]] and [[image:1762754384287-190.png||height="22" width="22"]] respectively
458 +* preliminary check of the formula [[image:1762754384287-268.png||height="27" width="26"]]
459 +* filter by category
460 +* filter by formula
461 +* filter by device.
462 +
463 +More detailed use of calculation channels is described in the "Guide to setting up accounting channels".

465 +== 3. CONFIGURING CENTO VIA EXCEL ==
466 +
467 +The CENTO software provides the ability to configure the system via Excel files. The interface of this functionality is located on the Downloading/Uploading Configuration Files page (Menu item "Settings" – "Configuration Files"). (see Fig. 3.1).
468 +
469 +[[image:Screenshot 2025-11-09 at 22.02.21.png]]
470 +
471 +Fig. 3.1– Download/Upload Configuration Files Page
472 +
473 +With the help of Excel files, you can configure:
474 +
475 +1. Devices (also device tree and device types);
476 +1. Tags and channels;
477 +1. Events;
478 +1. Information model (classes, elements, reference books);
479 +1. Telecontrol Lock Conditions;
480 +1. Accounting Channels.
481 +1. Tabular data directories.
482 +1. Alarm event recorders.
483 +
484 +A .xlsx file with strictly defined tabs and columns is uploaded from this page with a single button. File correction is possible both through Excel and through other programs that work with the .xlsx table format, for example, LibreOffice. With another button, these files are uploaded to the server. After downloading, you need to apply the changes made by clicking the "Update configuration" button in the drop-down menu in the upper right corner of the page, as in Fig.3.2.
485 +
486 +[[image:Screenshot 2025-11-09 at 22.03.16.png||height="248" width="232"]]
487 +
488 +Fig. 3.2– Update Configuration Button
489 +
490 +In addition to the web interface, power facilities and device types can be edited through the "Devices" table. On the first tab "List of objects" there is a table as in Figure 3.3
491 +
492 +[[image:Screenshot 2025-11-09 at 22.04.17.png||height="194" width="384"]]
493 +
494 +Fig. 3.3 – Table "List of objects"
495 +
496 +The Object ID column contains unique numbers of the enterprise's power facilities. Their names are displayed in the "Object name" column. The "Parent Object ID" column determines where the power object will be located in the object tree, and if the cell is empty, then the object will lie at the root of the tree. Thus, the table shown in Figure 3.3 corresponds to the tree shown in Figure 3.4.

499 +
500 +Fig. 3.4 – Tree of power facilities
501 +
502 +The "Sorting" field determines where objects belonging to the same "parent" will be located relative to each other.
503 +
504 +Adding new power facilities is carried out taking into account the ID of existing objects in the table. Object IDs must not be repeated.
505 +
506 +The Device Types tab displays the device types available on the server (see Figure 3.5).
507 +
508 +[[image:Screenshot 2025-11-09 at 22.06.17.png||height="286" width="268"]]
509 +
510 +Fig. 3.5 – Table "Device Types"
511 +
512 +The ID column of the device type displays the unique number of the device type, and the name column displays its name. To add new types, you must follow the numbering.
513 +
514 +Editing other tabs in the Devices table and the Tags and Channels file is described in the setup guides for specific protocols and device types.
515 +
516 +Setting up Events files is described in the Event System Configuration Guide.
517 +
518 +The "Information Model Classes", "Information Model Elements" and "Information Model References" files are configured according to the "Information Model Setup Guide".
519 +
520 +The rules for filling in the file "Telecontrol lock conditions" can be found in the "Remote Control Lock Settings Guide".
521 +
522 +Working with accounting channels is described in the "Guide to setting up accounting channels".
523 +
524 +The "Logger Settings" file is configured according to the "Alarm Event Recorder Configuration Guide".
525 +
526 +"Tabular data references" are used in the mode calculation module, so their settings are specified in the "Mode Calculation Module Setup and Operation Manual".
527 +
528 +== 4. EVENTS ==
529 +
530 +"Events" in CENTO are designed to increase the observability of the system by tracking changes in the state of process equipment, recording changes in the event log and alerting users.
531 +
532 +Events help personnel to respond in a timely manner to changes in the technological process and system operation.
533 +
534 +* Event settings are located in the "Event Editor" menu item (see Fig. 4.1). Events that are configured on this page are included in the archive log of technological events, as well as in the operational log. For a more detailed description of the Event Editor page and how to configure technology events, see the Event System Setup Guide.
