 # lge320-reader
 
-Read data from the Landis+Gyr E320 electricity meter (or any DIN EN 62056‐21-compatible meter on 9600 Baud)
\ No newline at end of file
+Read data from the Landis+Gyr E320 electricity meter (or any DIN EN 62056‐21-compatible meter on 9600 Baud)
+In the `if __name__ == "__main__"` statement, an example data processing is written (as it is in use by me) - sending data to MQTT every second (on each data receive of the Landis+Gyr) and writing data to an influx database every 10s is currently implemented and can be configured using the `.env` file.
+
+
+## Usage
+
+First, you need to configure all the necessary values in the .env file. After configuring, run
+
+```bash
+python3 lge320reader.py
+```
+
+...to run the script.
