Technical Definition

The register Consumed energy total at address 13066 is used to monitor consumed energy total on the Esp32 C3 Zero Epever.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U DWORD R
  • Unit: kWh
  • 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 Consumed energy total (Address: 13066)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=13066, 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: "Consumed energy total"
  address: 13066
  value_type: U_DWORD_R
  unit_of_measurement: "kWh"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Total consumed energy since system initialization. Units: Kilowatt-hours (kWh). Cumulative energy drawn by loads.

Troubleshooting: Zero may indicate a new system, data reset, or a persistent monitoring error. Check initialization date if available.
