Technical Definition

The register name inverter name ac output energy today duration at address 1062 is used to monitor name inverter name ac output energy today duration on the Device Sofar G3.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: min
  • 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 name_inverter_name_ac_output_energy_today_duration (Address: 1062)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=1062, 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: "name_inverter_name_ac_output_energy_today_duration"
  address: 1062
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "min"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Duration of AC output energy generation today. Units: Seconds or Minutes. Indicates active production time within the current day.

Troubleshooting: Zero value implies no AC output or inverter shutdown for the day. Check for solar input, grid availability, and inverter status.
