Technical Definition
The register name inverter name power timezone5 at address 260 is used to monitor name inverter name power timezone5 on the Deye Inverter Entities Advanced.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: INT16
- Unit: W
- 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 power timezone5 (Address: 260)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=260, count=2, unit=1)
if not result.isError():
print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
print("Error reading register")
client.close()
