Em340 Package Modbus Register 49: modbus controller name PF sys

Technical Definition

The register modbus controller name PF sys at address 49 is used to monitor modbus controller name pf sys on the Em340 Package.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: S 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 modbus_controller_name PF sys (Address: 49)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=49, 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: "modbus_controller_name PF sys"
  address: 49
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "%"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: System Power Factor (PF). Unitless, from -1 to +1. Overall system efficiency of real power delivery.

Troubleshooting: Zero PF indicates a system-wide issue with reactive load or measurement. Verify all phase measurements and loads.
