Technical Definition
The register Raw T3 air intake at address 1 is used to monitor raw t3 air intake on the Genvex Optima 270.
- 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 Raw T3 air intake (Address: 1)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=1, 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:

💡 Engineer's Insight
Analysis: Measures the raw Temperature of the incoming air in degrees Celsius (°C). Reflects ambient or pre-conditioned air entering the system.
Troubleshooting: 0°C could signify a sensor fault, open circuit, or an unusually cold environment if the sensor is otherwise functional.
