I hope this is the right place. I am trying to configure IObroker to pull data from a Victron CCGX over Modbus TCP. The instance connects but no data points are shown.
- On the "general" tab, I don't see what is the purpose of the "Device ID" and the checkbox "Multi Device ID".
- On the "holding registers" tab, what is the meaning of "Slave ID"? If I put a value (any value) there, then on the Objects page there is a line "Holding registers" but no sub-item and no value.
- My objective is to store the data points from the CCGX in a log file. I need to analyze a particular low-voltage event. But I don't see anything in IObroker that will log data to a file? The "LOG" page seems to be just system information. The "EVENTS" page has lots of data but again no actual data points.
The Instance is defined: General: TCP, 10.1.0.40, port 502, Device ID 100, Multi device IDs checked, Use aliases checked. On the Holding Registers page, Address 3 (the register no.), Slave ID 246, Unit 246 (the correct Modbus Unit ID), Type Unsigned 16-bit Big-Endian, Length 1 Factor 1 Offset 0 Role value.
I will appreciate any advice, or pointers to documentation (what is on the site doesn't seem to cover this). Thank you!
