Modbus/Arrays extract divide and give in stream

[krokodandi]

I don't understand how to grab and
divide array
He comes in the form

msg.payload : Object
object
data: array[2]
0: 317
1: 205
buffer: buffer[4]raw
0: 0x1
1: 0x3d
2: 0x0
3: 0xcd

I need to consistently pull out the data temperature and humidity.
How do I write a function?
What I wrote does not work...
FunctionBlock
{
...
var TH = [ ];
for (var i=0;i<10;i++)
{
TH[i] = { payload: msg.payload[i] };
}
return TH;
...
}

I would use the helper functions provided by the NodeJS buffer in msg.payload.buffer.

As far as I remember Modbus uses Big Endian, so readInt16BE() might be used in this case.

Have a look at https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v8.x/api/buffer.html.

EDIT: Have a look at the array msg.payload.data. These seem to already contain the decoded values of your Modbus registers, so you can use them directly.

Something like:

let temp = msg.payload.data[0];
let humidity = msg.payload.data[1];

The rest depends on what you want to do with these values.

"TypeError: Cannot read property '0' of undefined"

I can't open an array yet.
But if remove the function, the array comes entire [ ccc , hhh ]
...
I don’t know how to pull these numbers out of the array. =(

Did you realise you have posted a flow containing just a debug node and nothing else?

How to share code or flow json

To share code samples or flow json in this forum, you need to take care to format it properly so that it is displayed correctly. The easiest way to do that is to click the 'Preformatted Text' button in the toolbar: [image] Then paste in your code or flow json. You should end up with three back-tick characters - ``` - on their own line before and after the code. On standard US English keyboards, this is on the same key as the ~ character.
