# Create MP common steps

These are the MP creation common steps that look the same for manual and UMP scenarios. The example shows the WIN measuring point creation.

1. For manual method select the WIN gateway. This GW must already be created.
2. Enter measuring point Name.
3. Enter Local ID.
4. Select the measuring point type.
5. Set Log Interval, No Of Decimals, Unit, Index, Communication Alarm Filter, Notes (optionally), New Adjustment Value, Calibration interval. If the values are prefilled, you may modify them if they are not greyed out. You may disable the alarms or disable them temporarily as well. The common MP parameters are described in chapter [Common MP parameters](/boomerang-3-domain-administrator-manual/admin/infrastructure/infrastructure__measuring_points/common-mp-parameters.md)

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.boomerang3.com/boomerang-3-domain-administrator-manual/admin/infrastructure/infrastructure__measuring_points/create-mp-common-steps.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
