Cts400 Modbus Register 30: Outlet Temperature

Technical Definition

The register Outlet Temperature at address 30 is used to monitor outlet Temperature on the Cts400.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: S 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 Outlet temperature (Address: 30)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=30, 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: "Outlet temperature"
  address: 30
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "°C"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Temperature of the outlet/output in degrees Celsius (°C). Context dependent on the specific device function.

Troubleshooting: Unusual readings could indicate poor thermal contact, faulty sensor, or environmental variations. Check sensor placement.
