Modbus sensors¶
Dependency modules¶
modbus
Modbus sensors component. You need to know address of device you want to connect to! Supported devices:
| Device | Model name |
|---|---|
| Eastron SDM6301 Energy meter | sdm630 |
| Eastron SDM1201 Energy meter | sdm120 |
| Sofar Solar PV Inverter | sofar |
Example config¶
modbus:
uart: uart1
modbus_sensors:
- id: sofar1
model: sofar
address: 1
- id: sdm1
model: sdm630
address: 32
Configuration variables:¶
- id (Required, string) - uniquely identifies this device in MQTT and Home Assistant
- address (Required, string) - modbus address of the device you want to communicate with.
- model (Required, string) - model schema to use. Check table above to get model name.
- update_interval (Optional, timeperiod, default: 60 seconds) - update interval. Modbus connection is pretty cpu intensive so customize with care. Minimum is 1 second, but recommended minimum is 10 secs.
Footnotes¶
-
Those energy metters can be found in two versions and only one supports Modbus - sometimes it’s marked with suffix
M(SDM120M/SDM6301M), other timeModbusis mentioned in the title. Don’t confuse it with cheaper version with suffixD(SDM120D/SDM6301D) - it doesn’t support Modbus communication so it can’t be connected with Bone.io. ↩ ↩2
