Technical Definition
The register name inverter name setting soc timezone1 at address 268 is used to monitor name inverter name setting soc timezone1 on the Deye Inverter Entities Advanced.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: U WORD
- Unit: %
- 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 setting soc timezone1 (Address: 268)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=268, count=2, unit=1)
if not result.isError():
print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
print("Error reading register")
client.close()
