 ## Configure environment
 
 - Use the [docker_compose.yml](docker_compose.yml) to start and setup your InfluxDB and Grafana environments.
-- Launch the environment with, for example, 'docker compose -f docker_compose.yml up -d"

 ### Setup InfluxDB
 
-- Create an user with password and a bucket to be used for saving the solar panel data.
-- Create two APIs: 1) one for the script 2) one for Grafana. The script could have both read and write access rights, Grafana needs reading rights.

 ## Script execution
 
-- Create a virtual environment with 'python3 -m venv test_env'
-- Activate the environment with 'source test_env/bin/activate'
-- Install the required package with 'pip install -r requirements.txt'
-- Setup the infrastructure, currently the setup uses Grafana and InfluxDB, which are running in separate Docker environments.
-- Execute in the terminal with the following command: 'python3 fronius.py'

+- Setup the infrastructure, like defined in Chapter "Configure environment". Currently the setup uses Grafana and InfluxDB, which are running in separate Docker environments.

+- Run in terminal the following command

+```code
+python3 fronius.py

+- You should see something like this in the terminal:

+Time: 09:07:45
+Currently producing: 75 W
+Setup utilization: 2 %

 - After script execution the data is fetched from the inverter and processed. In the terminal you will see a trimmed output and if everything is setup correctly you can find the same information from InfluxDB.
-- If you don't wish to keep the virtual environment then deactivate it with 'deactivate' command in the terminal.
