:description: Instructions for setting up the Modbus Controller component.
:image: modbus.png
The ``modbus_controller`` component creates a RS485 connection to control a Modbus server (slave) device, letting your ESPHome node to act as a Modbus client (master).
You can access the coils, inputs, holding, read registers from your devices as sensors, switches, selects, numbers or various other ESPHome components and present them to your favorite Home Automation system. You can even write them as binary or float ouptputs from ESPHome.
.. figure:: /images/modbus.png
:align: center
:width: 25%
The ``modbus_controller`` component relies on the :doc:`/components/modbus`.
Hardware setup
--------------
You need an RS485 transceiver module:
.. figure:: /images/rs485.jpg
See `How is this RS485 module working? <https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/244425/how-is-this-rs485-module-working>`__ on stackexchange for more details.
The transceiver connects to the UART of the MCU. For ESP32, pin ``16`` to ``TXD`` and pin ``17`` to ``RXD`` are the default ones but any other pins can be used as well. ``3.3V`` to ``VCC`` and naturally ``GND`` to ``GND``.
On the bus side, you need 120 Ohm termination resistors at the ends of the bus cable as per Modbus standard. Some transceivers have this already soldered onboard, while some slave devices may have them available via a jumper or a DIP switch.
.. note::
If you are using an ESP8266, serial logging may cause problems reading from UART. For best results, hardware serial is recommended. Software serial may not be able to read all received data if other components spend a lot of time in the ``loop()``.
For hardware serial only a limited set of pins can be used. Either ``tx_pin: GPIO1`` and ``rx_pin: GPIO3`` or ``tx_pin: GPIO15`` and ``rx_pin: GPIO13``.
The disadvantage of using the hardware UART is that you can't use serial logging because the serial logs would be sent to the Modbus device(s) instead, causing errors.
Serial logging can be disabled by setting ``baud_rate: 0``.
See :doc:`logger` for more details
.. code-block:: yaml
logger:
level: <level>
baud_rate: 0
Configuration variables:
------------------------
- **modbus_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the ``modbus`` hub.
- **address** (**Required**, :ref:`config-id`): The Modbus address of the slave device
- **command_throttle** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): minimum time in between 2 requests to the device. Default is ``0ms``.
Some Modbus slave devices limit the rate of requests from the master, so this allows the interval between requests to be altered.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval that the sensors should be checked.
Defaults to 60 seconds.
- **offline_skip_updates** (*Optional*, integer): When a slave doesn't respond to a command, it is
marked as offline, you can specify how many updates will be skipped while it is offline. If using a bus with multiple
slaves, this avoids waiting for timeouts allowing to read other slaves in the same bus. When the slave
responds to a command, it'll be marked online again.
Example
-------
The following code creates a ``modbus_controller`` hub talking to a ModBUS device at address ``1`` with ``115200`` bps
ModBUS sensors can be directly defined (inline) under the ``modbus_controller`` hub or as standalone components
Technically there is no difference between the "inline" and the standard definitions approach.

The configuration example above creates a ``modbus_controller`` hub talking to a Modbus device at address ``1`` with a baudrate of ``115200`` bps, implementing a sensor, a switch and a text sensor.
Check out the various Modbus components available at the bottom of the document in the :ref:`modbusseealso` section. They can be directly defined *(inline)* under the ``modbus_controller`` hub or as standalone components. Technically there is no difference between the *inline* and the standard definitions approach.
Below you find a few general tips about using Modbus in more advanced scenarios. Applicable component functionalities have links pointing here:
.. _bitmasks:
Bitmasks
--------
Some devices use decimal values in read registers to show multiple binary states occupying only one register address. To decode them, you can use bitmasks according to the table below. The decimal value corresponding to a bit is always double of the previous one in the row. Multiple bits can be represented in a single register by making a sum of all the values corresponding to the bits.
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| Alarm bit | Description | DEC value | HEX value |
+============+==================+===========+===========+
| bit 0 | Binary Sensor 0 | 1 | 1 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 1 | Binary Sensor 1 | 2 | 2 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 2 | Binary Sensor 2 | 4 | 4 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 3 | Binary Sensor 3 | 8 | 8 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 4 | Binary Sensor 4 | 16 | 10 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 5 | Binary Sensor 5 | 32 | 20 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 6 | Binary Sensor 6 | 64 | 40 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 7 | Binary Sensor 7 | 128 | 80 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 8 | Binary Sensor 8 | 256 | 100 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 9 | Binary Sensor 9 | 512 | 200 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 10 | Binary Sensor 10 | 1024 | 400 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 11 | Binary Sensor 11 | 2048 | 800 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 12 | Binary Sensor 12 | 4096 | 1000 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 13 | Binary Sensor 13 | 8192 | 2000 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 14 | Binary Sensor 14 | 16384 | 4000 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
| bit 15 | Binary Sensor 15 | 32768 | 8000 |
+------------+------------------+-----------+-----------+
In the example below, register ``15``, holds several binary values. It stores the decimal value ``12288``, which is the sum of ``4096`` + ``8192``, meaning the corresponding bits ``12`` and ``13`` are ``1``, the other bits are ``0``.
To gather some of these bits as binary sensors in ESPHome, use ``bitmask``:
.. code-block:: yaml
binary_sensor:
- platform: modbus_controller
modbus_controller_id: modbus1
name: Alarm bit0
register_type: read
address: 15
bitmask: 0x1
- platform: modbus_controller
modbus_controller_id: modbus1
name: Alarm bit1
register_type: read
address: 15
bitmask: 0x2
- platform: modbus_controller
modbus_controller_id: modbus1
name: Alarm bit10
register_type: read
address: 15
bitmask: 0x400
- platform: modbus_controller
modbus_controller_id: modbus1
name: Alarm bit15
register_type: read
address: 15
bitmask: 0x8000
.. _modbus_custom_command:
Using ``custom_command``
------------------------
``custom_command`` can be used to create an arbitrary modbus command. Combined with a lambda any response can be handled.
This example re-implements the command to read the registers 0x156 (Total active energy) and 0x158 Total (reactive energy) from a SDM-120.
SDM-120 returns the values as floats using 32 bits in 2 registers.

.. _modbus_register_count:
Optimizing modbus communications
--------------------------------
``register_count`` is an option only required for uncommon response encodings or to optimizie modbus communications.
It describes the number of registers this data point spans, overriding the defaults determined by ``value_type``. If no value for ``register_count`` is provided, it is calculated based on the register type. The default size for one register is 16 bits (one word). Some devices are not adhering to this convention and have registers larger than 16 bits. In this case, ``register_count`` and ``response_size`` must be set. For example, if your Modbus device uses one register for a FP32 value (instead of the default of two), set ``register_count: 1`` and ``response_size: 4``.
``register_count`` can also be used to skip a number of registers in consecutive range.
An example is an SDM meter, with interesting data in register addresses 0, 2, 4 and 6:
.. code-block:: yaml
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Voltage Phase 1"
address: 0
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Voltage Phase 2"
address: 2
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Voltage Phase 3"
address: 4
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Current Phase 1"
address: 6
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
accuracy_decimals: 1
The configuration above will generate *one* modbus command *read multiple registers from 0 to 6*.
Maybe you dont care about the data in register addresses 2 and 4, which are voltage values for Phase 2 and Phase 3 (or you have a SDM-120).
Of course, you can delete the sensors your dont care about, but then you'd have a gap in the addresses. If you remove the registers at address 2 and 4, *two* commands will be generated -- *read register 0* and *read register 6*. To avoid generating multiple commands and thus reduce activity on the bus, ``register_count`` can be used to fill the gaps:
.. code-block:: yaml
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Voltage Phase 1"
address: 0
unit_of_measurement: "V"
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
register_count: 6
- platform: modbus_controller
name: "Current Phase 1"
address: 6
register_type: "read"
value_type: FP32
Because the option ``register_count: 6`` is used for the first sensor, *one* command *read multiple registers from 0 to 6* will be used but the values in between will be ignored.
.. note:: *Calculation:* FP32 is a 32 bit value and uses 2 registers. Therefore, to skip the 2 FP32 registers the size of these 2 registers must be added to the default size for the first register. So we have 2 for address 0, 2 for address 2 and 2 for address 4 thus ``register_count`` must be 6.

To minimize the required transactions all registers with the same base address are read in one request.
The response is mapped to the sensor based on ``register_count`` and offset in bytes. For example:

.. note::
Write support is only implemented for switches and selects; however, the C++ code provides the required API to write to a Modbus device.
These methods can be called from a lambda.
