Technical Definition

The register name product serial number at address 24 is used to monitor name product serial number on the Srne.

• Protocol: Modbus RTU
• Data Type: U DWORD
• 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_product_serial_number (Address: 24)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=24, 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_product_serial_number"
  address: 24
  value_type: U_DWORD
  unit_of_measurement: ""

💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: Unique serial number of the product. Typically an alphanumeric string.

Troubleshooting: Zero or empty indicates an unprogrammed or faulty device. Serial number must be provisioned.
