Technical Definition

The register Humidity setpoint at address 262 is used to monitor humidity setpoint on the Vascod150Interface.

  • Protocol: Modbus RTU
  • Data Type: S 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 Humidity setpoint (Address: 262)
# Note: Check if your device uses 0-based or 1-based addressing
result = client.read_input_registers(address=262, 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: "Humidity setpoint"
  address: 262
  value_type: S_WORD
  unit_of_measurement: "%"

Connection Diagram

Here is the standard RS485 wiring for this configuration:

    PLC -- "A+ (D+)" --> Device
    PLC -- "B- (D-)" --> Device
    PLC -- GND --> Device


💡 Engineer's Insight

Analysis: The target humidity level for the environment. Units: Percentage (%).

Troubleshooting: A setpoint of 0 may indicate a disabled function or a default setting. Verify configuration if not intended.
