Technical Definition

The register name AFCI algorithm version at address 19 is used to monitor name afci algorithm version on the Sr 000A 0049 Sensors.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: U WORD
  • Unit:
  • 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 AFCI algorithm version (Address: 19)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=19, 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 AFCI algorithm version"
  address: 19
  value_type: U_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: ""

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Indicates the version of the AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) algorithm running on the sensors. Represents the specific software logic for arc detection.

Troubleshooting: A value of '0' or a specific error code suggests the algorithm is not active, uninitialized, or has encountered a fatal error.
