Modbus TCP Register Map
Power Meter – Holding Registers (FC03)
1. Overview
This document describes the Modbus TCP Holding Register map (Function Code 03) for the Power Meter device. It is intended for system integrators, SCADA/BMS engineers, and OEM partners.
The register map provides instantaneous electrical measurements only. Energy counters are not implemented.
2. Communication Parameters
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Protocol | Modbus TCP |
| Function Code | 03 – Read Holding Registers |
| Addressing | 0-based |
| Unit ID | 1 (default) |
| 32-bit Byte Order | MSW first |
| Signed Encoding | Two’s complement |
3. Data Model
3.1 Data Types
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| UINT16 | Unsigned 16-bit integer |
| INT16 | Signed 16-bit integer |
| UINT32 | Unsigned 32-bit integer (2 registers) |
| INT32 | Signed 32-bit integer (2 registers) |
All 32-bit values are encoded using two consecutive 16-bit registers, with Most Significant Word first.
3.2 Scaling Convention
Engineering values are calculated using a scale factor:
Engineering value = Register value × Scale
| Quantity | Scale |
|---|---|
| Voltage | 0.01 |
| Current | 0.001 |
| Power Factor | 0.001 |
| Frequency | 0.001 |
| THD | 0.01 |
| Temperature | 0.1 |
| Power (P, Q, S) | 1 |
| RSSI | 1 |
3.3 Special Values
- Power Factor = 2000 → value invalid / undefined
- Active and reactive power values support import/export
- RSSI values are expressed in dBm
