<serverUrl>https://portal.multiflexmeter.net/api/v1/timeseries/{locationId}/?resolution=30s</serverUrl>
<user>$MULTIFLEX_METER_USER$</user>
<password>$MULTIFLEX_METER_PASSWORD$</password>
<relativeViewPeriod unit="hour" start="-120" end="0" startOverrulable="true"/>
<idMapId>IdImportMultiFlex</idMapId>
<dataFeedId>Multiflex Meter</dataFeedId>
</general>
<timeSeriesSet>
<moduleInstanceId>ImportMultiflexMeter</moduleInstanceId>
<valueType>scalar</valueType>
<parameterId>water_distance_from_device</parameterId>
<locationId>mfm1040</locationId>
<timeSeriesType>external historical</timeSeriesType>
<timeStep unit="minute" multiplier="30"/>
<readWriteMode>add originals</readWriteMode>
</timeSeriesSet>
</import>
