Technical Definition

The register name inverter name ac output voltage at address 1165 is used to monitor name inverter name ac output voltage on the Device Sofar G3.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: V
  • 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_voltage (Address: 1165)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=1165, 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_voltage"
  address: 1165
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "V"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: AC Output Voltage (Volts). Indicates the grid voltage the inverter is synchronizing with and exporting to.

Troubleshooting: Low/Zero: Grid voltage issue, inverter fault, or no load connected. High: Grid voltage issue or inverter fault.
