Technical Definition

The register name inverter name battery current at address 191 is used to monitor name inverter name battery current on the Deye Inverter Entities Sensor.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: S WORD
  • Unit: A
  • 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 battery current (Address: 191)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=191, 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 battery current"
  address: 191
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Battery current flow. Positive for charging, negative for discharging. Measured in Amperes (A).

Troubleshooting: Zero indicates no current flow. Check battery health, connection, and inverter charge/discharge commands.
