Device Sofar Ktlg3 Modbus Register 14: Name inverter name ac output frequency

Technical Definition

The register name inverter name ac output frequency at address 14 is used to monitor name inverter name ac output frequency on the Device Sofar Ktlg3.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U WORD
• Unit: Hz
• 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_frequency (Address: 14)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=14, 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_frequency"
  address: 14
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "Hz"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: AC Output Frequency (Hz). The frequency of the AC power supplied by the inverter to the grid.

Troubleshooting: Deviations from grid frequency (e.g., 50Hz or 60Hz) indicate a grid synchronization issue or inverter malfunction.
