Technical Definition

The register Inverter Battery power at address 25273 is used to monitor inverter battery power on the Esp32 Pv18.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: S WORD
  • Unit: W
  • 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 Inverter Battery power (Address: 25273)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=25273, 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: "Inverter Battery power"
  address: 25273
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "W"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Measures the real-time power output/input from the battery system, in Watts (W).

Troubleshooting: Zero indicates no power flow, suggesting a discharged battery, protection active, or communication error with the battery management system.
