sdm-modbus 0.3.0

Eastron SDM Modbus parser library

sdm_modbus

sdm_modbus is a python library that collects data from Eastron SDM single- and three-phase kWh meters over Modbus or ModbusTCP.

Supported devices:

• SDM120
• SDM630

Installation

To install, either clone this project and install using setuptools:

python3 setup.py install

or install the package from PyPi:

pip3 install sdm_modbus

Usage

The script example.py provides a minimal example of connecting to and displaying all input and holding registers on a SDM120 over ModbusTCP. To display values as a JSON object, add --json.

usage: example.py [-h] [--unit UNIT] [--json] host port

positional arguments:
  host         ModbusTCP address
  port         ModbusTCP port

optional arguments:
  -h, --help   show this help message and exit
  --unit UNIT  Modbus unit
  --json       Output as JSON

Output:

Examples

If you wish to use ModbusTCP the following parameters are relevant:

host = IP or DNS name of your ModbusTCP gateway, required
port = listening port of the ModbusTCP gateway, required
unit = Modbus device id, default=1, optional

While if you are using a serial Modbus connection you can specify:

device = path to serial device, e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0, required
baud = baud rate of your SDM unit, defaults to product default, optional
unit = Modbus unit id, defaults to 1, optional

Connecting to the meter:

    >>> import sdm_modbus

    # SDM120 over ModbusTCP
    >>> device = sdm_modbus.SDM120(host="10.0.0.123", port=502)

    # DM630 over Modbus RTU
    >>> device = sdm_modbus.SDM630(device="/dev/ttyUSB0", baud=9600)

Test the connection:

    >>> device.connected()
    True

Printing the class yields basic device parameters:

    >>> device
    SDM120(10.0.0.123:502, unit=0x1)

Reading a single input register by name:

    >>> device.read("voltage")
    236.89999389648438

Read all input registers by passing the sdm_modbus.registerType.INPUT enum to read_all(). Leave this blank to read both INPUT and HOLDING registers:

    >>> device.read_all(sdm_modbus.registerType.INPUT)
    {
        "voltage": 238.60000610351562,
        "current": 7.59499979019165,

        "total_demand_current": 7.531858921051025,

        "total_energy_reactive": 4376.03515625
    }

    >>> device.read_all(sdm_modbus.registerType.HOLDING)
    {
        "demand_time": 1,
        "demand_period": 60,
        "relay_pulse_width": 60,
        "network_parity_stop": 0,
        "meter_id": 1,
        "baud": 2,
        "p1_output_mode": 4,
        "display_scroll_timing": 0,
        "p1_divisor": 0,
        "measurement_mode": 0,
        "indicator_mode": 0
    }

If you need more information about a particular register, to look up the units or enumerations, for example:

    >>> device.registers["voltage"]
        # address, length, type, datatype, valuetype, name, unit
        (0, 2, <registerType.INPUT: 1>, <registerDataType.FLOAT32: 11>, <class 'float'>, 'Voltage', 'V'))

    >>> device.registers["p1_divisor"]
        (
            63760, 2, <registerType.HOLDING: 2>, <registerDataType.FLOAT32: 11>, <class 'int'>, 
            'P1 Divisor', ['0.001kWh/imp', '0.01kWh/imp', '0.1kWh/imp', '1kWh/imp']
        )

Writing to holding registers is also possible. Setting a new baud rate, for example:

    >>> device.write("baud", 2)
    WriteMultipleRegisterResponse (28,2)

Remember: you will need to enable setup mode on your device by pressing the setup button for 5 seconds. You will receive a Exception Response(134, 6, GatewayNoResponse) or similar, otherwise.
