1. Create clon of configuration files from git on local
2. Copy configuration for HA autodiscovery MQTT Integration
3. Start eBus deamon with parameters: --configpath=/etc/ebusd/ebusd-2.1.x/en (your local address) Message configuration options
   --mqttint=/etc/ebusd/mqtt-hassio.cfg
4. Change what you want with your message decoding [Message definition](Message definition)
5. After every change reload configuration ebusctl reload TCP client commands

but i dont know how change config file....
and what you mean of point 2 ?

Configuration files is basic csv text file. You can edit it in every text editor or open it with Excel.
Default configuration file for HA Autodiscovery mqtt-hassio.cfg contains filters for read-only messages and only for some subset of messages: filter-name = status|temp|humidity|yield|count|energy|power|runtime|hours|starts|mode|curve|^load$|^party$|sensor|timer
So if you use HA and want to see every message you need make it local and also change some configuration.
