Good day,
I am looking for some help to extract nibble data coming from a DSE Generator controller over Modbus.
I did see the option to use BCD but not sure how to properly use it in the configuration.
I have attached the code I have created so far (I had to remove lines from the buffer-parser to get it posted). I read 10 sets of registers from the controller, join the 10 buffer messages and the send it to the buffer-parser. From the buffer-parser I package the data and MQTT it. I would prefer not to do another function to extract the nibble data.
