Hello, it is my first time using Node-Red so please bear with me.
I have come across a situation where we have multiple Unit-Id connected via same IP address. Each unit-id corresponds to each energy meter. All energy meters are of same model and share the same register addresses. There are 12 Unit-Id's and one IP address (10.13.5.20). For each unit-id, I need to read 23 registers. These registers are distributed in groups of consecutive registers like 10..20, 220..223 and so on. Once fetched, the values of-course need to be converted to readable float32.
What is the best way to handle this situation?
- Do I need a separate Modbus Flex Getter for each unit-id?
- How do I handle the fact that the registers that are needed are not consecutive? Can Modbus Flex Sequencer help with this? In case, yes, How?
- How to apply the function of conversion from bigendian to float32 to each register value that we need in case we take all registers together?
I attach the screenshot of what has been done previously by another team. This looks highly inefficient and difficult to scale up.
