Technical Definition

The register JKBMS actual battery capacity at address 4780 is used to monitor jkbms actual battery capacity on the Jkbms Modbus.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U DWORD
  • Unit: AH
  • 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 JKBMS actual battery capacity (Address: 4780)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=4780, 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: "JKBMS actual battery capacity"
  address: 4780
  value_type: U_DWORD
  unit_of_measurement: "AH"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Nominal or maximum capacity of the battery. Units: Ampere-hours (Ah). Represents the battery's full charge capacity.

Troubleshooting: Zero value is unlikely unless the battery is new and uncalibrated or a fault exists. Verify battery specifications.
