Esp32 Rs232 Modbus Register 390: Name PV2 Current

Technical Definition

The register name PV2 Current at address 390 is used to monitor name pv2 current on the Esp32 Rs232.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U 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 PV2 Current (Address: 390)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=390, 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 PV2 Current"
  address: 390
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Current from the second solar panel array (PV2). Units: Amperes (A).

Troubleshooting: Check PV2 wiring, look for circuit faults, and confirm adequate sunlight. Zero current means no power transfer.
