+# DLT Build Options
+
+DLT is highly configurable. It allows you to choose between certain technologies
+or implementations and to turn on or off certain features. This way, you can
+adjust it to your needs and keep the build process as simple as possible.
+
+In order to change these options, you can modify these values with cmake, do the
+appropriate changes in CmakeList.txt or via the commandline for cmake
+
+Change a value with: cmake -D\<Variable\>=\<Value\>, E.g.
+
+```bash
+cmake .. -DWITH_SYSTEMD=ON -DWITH_SYSTEMD_JOURNAL=ON -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
+```
+

+# DLT Demo Setup
+Back to [README.md](../README.md)
+
+In this document you will run an instance of
+dlt-daemon. It silently waits to collect and buffer log messages that are
+produced by one or multiple DLT users. You will run one of those DLT users and
+make it produce log messages that are sent to the daemon. Eventually, you launch
+a client that collects and displays these messages.
+
+*Note: We assume that you installed DLT (i.e. executed the [two optional steps
+after build](../README.md#build-and-install)). Otherwise you have to take care
+of the executable paths and explicitly state the library path.*
+
+## Run the DLT Daemon
+The DLT daemon is highly configurable but for this case the default settings are
+okay. Don't be put off by warning messages:
+```bash
+$ dlt-daemon
+[1886222.668006]~DLT~32290~NOTICE ~Starting DLT Daemon; DLT Package Version: 2.18.0 STABLE, Package Revision: v2.18.1, build on Dec 8 2020 11:11:51

+[1886222.670365]~DLT~32290~WARNING ~dlt_daemon_applications_load: cannot open file /tmp/dlt-runtime-application.cfg: No such file or directory
+```
+The daemon opened a named pipe from which it is ready to read and buffer log
+messages. It also accepts connections on TCP port 3490 by clients to collect
+the messages.
+
+## Produce Log Messages
+A simulated ECU - a DLT user - will now use the DLT library to create log
+messages and send them through the named pipe for the daemon to collect. Open a
+second terminal and run
+```bash
+$ dlt-example-user -n 5 -l 3 "This is my first log message"
+Send 0 This is my first log message
+Log level changed of context TEST, LogLevel=4, TraceState=0
+Log level changed of context TS1, LogLevel=4, TraceState=0
+Log level changed of context TS2, LogLevel=4, TraceState=0
+Send 1 This is my first log message
+Client disconnected!
+Send 2 This is my first log message
+Send 3 This is my first log message
+Send 4 This is my first log message
+```
+This will send 5 (```-n 5```) identical log messages of Log-Level
+WARNING ```(-l 3)``` containing a string payload.
+
+## Read logs
+The DLT daemon now has the messages in its buffer and will keep them there until
+they are fetched. A mighty tool for receiving and processing log messages is the
+[DLT-Viewer](https://github.com/GENIVI/dlt-viewer), which also provides a
+graphical UI. For now, a simple command line client is absolutely sufficient:
+```bash
+$ dlt-receive -a localhost

+The client connects to the default port 3490 of localhost to collect all
+messages and interprets the payload as ASCII text (```-a```). You can see lots
+of additional messages. These are control messages to control the flow between
+client and daemon. You will learn about them later. For now, you have set up a
+basic example have seen DLT in action.
+
+You can now experiment with this setup. What happens if you start the DLT user
+first and (while the DLT user is still running) the daemon? \ No newline at end of file
