Technical Definition

The register Energy 2 at address 83 is used to monitor energy 2 on the %5Bssd1306%20128X32%5Denergymeter.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U DWORD
  • Unit: kWh
  • Access: Read Only

How to Read (Python pymodbus)

Use this code snippet to read this specific value via RS485:

from pymodbus.client.sync import ModbusSerialClient

client = ModbusSerialClient(method='rtu', port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=9600)
client.connect()

# Read Energy 2 (Address: 83)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=83, count=2, unit=1)

if not result.isError():
    print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
    print("Error reading register")

client.close()

Integration (Home Assistant)

Paste this into your configuration.yaml:

- platform: modbus_controller
  name: "Energy 2"
  address: 83
  value_type: U_DWORD
  unit_of_measurement: "kWh"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Accumulated electrical energy consumed on phase 2, measured in Kilowatt-hours (kWh). Tracks energy usage.

Troubleshooting: Zero indicates no consumption or a possible meter fault. Verify power delivery and meter operation.
