Technical Definition

The register Generated energy today at address 13068 is used to monitor generated energy today on the Esp32 Epever 4210An.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U DWORD R
  • Unit: Wh
  • 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 Generated energy today (Address: 13068)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=13068, 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: "Generated energy today"
  address: 13068
  value_type: U_DWORD_R
  unit_of_measurement: "Wh"
