Esp32 Usb Example Modbus Register 232: Name battery average current2

Technical Definition

The register name battery average current2 at address 232 is used to monitor name battery average current2 on the Esp32 Usb Example.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: S 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 battery average current2 (Address: 232)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=232, 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 battery average current2"
  address: 232
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "A"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Average current flow within the battery system (context dependent). Units: Amperes (A).

Troubleshooting: Zero suggests no battery current. Negative values often indicate discharge, positive indicate charging.
