+
 The **mbusd** service can be started via:

 	# systemctl start mbusd@<serial port>.service

 where `<serial port>` is serial port device name (like `ttyUSB0`).

+**mbusd** started by systemd will read its configuration from file named `/etc/mbusd/mbusd-<serial port>.conf`.
+This way it's possible to run multiple **mbusd** instances with different configurations.
