I was asked to correct a part that will stop you from automating tcpser on

It should be Type=forking.  If it's anything else, LINUX will end the thread
because it considers the script to have run and maintain its own PID.

Sorry for the error.  The serialBridge.service file should look like below.

Edit your original or just type "rm /lib/systemd/systemserialBridge.service" to
remove the old file and remake it by doing the following:

type: sudo vi /lib/systemd/system/serialBridge.service 
type: i

Copy and paste everything between the # mark lines into the editor (or type it
in if you are a better typer than myself):
