Technical Definition

The register amdsg08 names prefixamdsg08 sensor 1 name at address 160 is used to monitor amdsg08 names prefixamdsg08 sensor 1 name on the Amdsg08.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: °C
  • 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 amdsg08_names_prefixamdsg08_sensor_1_name (Address: 160)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=160, 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: "amdsg08_names_prefixamdsg08_sensor_1_name"
  address: 160
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "°C"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Reading from Amdsg08 Sensor 1. Units are specific to the sensor's measurement (e.g., Temperature, pressure, flow).

Troubleshooting: Zero value may indicate sensor fault, wiring issue, or no measurement. Inspect sensor and its connections.
