Technical Definition

The register S5140 Channel 5 Current (24V) - 24V Devices at address 104 is used to monitor s5140 channel 5 current (24v) - 24v devices on the A32 Pro.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: A
  • 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 S5140 Channel 5 Current (24V) - 24V Devices (Address: 104)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=104, 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: "S5140 Channel 5 Current (24V) - 24V Devices"
  address: 104
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: 24V Devices Current (24V). Measured current draw in Amps (A) for general 24V loads.

Troubleshooting: Zero indicates no load or a fault. Verify connected devices and wiring integrity.
