Technical Definition

The register s 3060 at address 3060 is used to monitor s 3060 on the General.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: m3/h
  • 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 s_3060 (Address: 3060)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=3060, 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: "s_3060"
  address: 3060
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "m3/h"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Register 3060: Often a control output status or actuator position. Units could be percentage (%), discrete state (on/off), or a specific command code.

Troubleshooting: If 0: Indicates actuator is off, at a specific position, or command failed. Verify actuator and control signal integrity.
