A32 Pro Modbus Register 0: BME280 3 Relative Humidity

Technical Definition

The register BME280 3 Relative Humidity at address 0 is used to monitor bme280 3 relative humidity on the A32 Pro.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U WORD
• Unit: RH %
• 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 BME280_3 Relative Humidity (Address: 0)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=0, 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: "BME280_3 Relative Humidity"
  address: 0
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "RH %"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Relative humidity percentage (0-100%) measured by BME280 sensor 3. Indicates atmospheric moisture content.

Troubleshooting: Sensor malfunction, condensation on sensor, or extreme environmental conditions exceeding sensor limits.
