note: >-
  Read from AMETEK Powervar's own published REST API definition (A55-00202 REV B), which states
  verbatim: "Basic Authentication supported", "Web session tokens supported using x-auth-token
  header", and "Authentication is required for access to all API features". The OpenAPI in
  openapi/ was transcribed from that same document, so the spec and the docs are one source.
  No OAuth2, OIDC or mTLS is published for this surface. Credentials are the adapter's own local
  administrative credentials, issued by the device, not by an AMETEK-operated identity service.
