Description:

This manual describes how to connect the device to Home Assistant via Modbus protocol using ESP and RS485/TTL converter. In this case it is about connecting a Gree Versati III 10kw heat pump.

Info:

• use only shielded cable, otherwise the error "Modbus CRC Check Failed!" may appear in the log.
• put a 120 ohm resistor after the last connected device
