Technical Definition
The register Battery Discharge Today at address 61486 is used to monitor battery discharge today on the Powmr Inverter 1.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: INT16
- 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 Battery Discharge Today (Address: 61486)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=61486, 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: "Battery Discharge Today"
address: 61486
value_type: INT16
unit_of_measurement: "Ah"

💡 Engineer's Insight
Analysis: Battery Discharge Today (kWh). Cumulative energy discharged from the battery since the start of the day.
Troubleshooting: Zero means no discharging occurred. Check load demand, battery SOC, and inverter's discharge enable status.
