Technical Definition

The register name Temperature compensation coefficient at address 36866 is used to monitor name Temperature compensation coefficient on the Mosquito Trap 3.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit: mV/°C/2V
  • 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_temperature_compensation_coefficient (Address: 36866)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=36866, 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_temperature_compensation_coefficient"
  address: 36866
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "mV/°C/2V"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Coefficient for adjusting charge/discharge based on Temperature (unitless or specific units).

Troubleshooting: Zero might imply no Temperature compensation or a configuration issue.
