Technical Definition

The register channel 12 dugpunkt at address 1207 is used to monitor channel 12 dugpunkt on the Channel 12.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: INT16
  • 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 channel_12 dugpunkt (Address: 1207)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=1207, 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: "channel_12 dugpunkt"
  address: 1207
  value_type: INT16
  unit_of_measurement: "°C"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Dew point Temperature for Channel 12, indicating the Temperature at which condensation forms.

Troubleshooting: Zero reading might signify sensor malfunction or exceptionally dry environmental conditions.
