Technical Definition

The register Inverter Active Power L2 at address 562 is used to monitor inverter active power l2 on the Powmr Inverter 1.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: INT16
  • Unit: W
  • 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 Inverter Active Power L2 (Address: 562)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=562, 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: "Inverter Active Power L2"
  address: 562
  value_type: INT16
  unit_of_measurement: "W"

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Measures the real power (kW) delivered or consumed by the inverter on Line 2. Units: Kilowatts (kW).

Troubleshooting: Zero means no active power transfer. Verify L2 current, voltage, and load status.
