Technical Definition

The register AC Current Scale at address 40075 is used to monitor ac current scale on the Esphome Web 4C96D0.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: S WORD
  • Unit:
  • 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 AC Current Scale (Address: 40075)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=40075, 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: "AC Current Scale"
  address: 40075
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: ""

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Scaling factor applied to AC current readings. Unitless or specific multiplier.

Troubleshooting: Incorrect value may lead to erroneous current measurements. Check configuration.
