Technical Definition
The register M055 Over Power Protected at address 85 is used to monitor m055 over power protected on the Sensors.
- Protocol: Modbus RTU
- Data Type: U WORD
- 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 M055 Over Power Protected (Address: 85)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=85, count=2, unit=1)
if not result.isError():
print(f"Raw Value: {result.registers}")
else:
print("Error reading register")
client.close()

💡 Engineer's Insight
Analysis: M055 Over Power Protected: Boolean status indicating if the device is protected against overpower conditions. 1=Protected, 0=Not Protected.
Troubleshooting: Zero value means overpower protection is inactive or has tripped. Verify power consumption and protection circuit status.
