Hukseflux Pyranometers
Purpose
The purpose of this plugin is to collect data from Hukseflux pyranometers via Modbus.
Usage
This plugin collects from the Hukseflux pyranometer sensors. It uses the Modbus TCP Specification, and collects from Serial or IP connected sensors. The following models are supported:
This plugin relies on the Modbus Ardexa
plugin. The following data points are collected:
Arguments
Arguments are as follows:
endpoint
. This is either a serial device like/dev/ttyS0
or an IP or DNS like192.168.1.15
bus_addresses
. A Modbus address in the range 2-255. This can be a hyphenated list like3-10
or a list like2,5,7,9
--port
. This is an optional parameter used in an Ethernet gateway, and is the TCP port used for the gateway. Default is502
--attempts
. This is an optional parameter, and determines how many times to times to attempt to read an inverter value. Default is1
--delay
. This is the delay in seconds between inverter send and receive commands, AND ifattempts
> 1. Fractions like0.3
can be used. Default is0.05
--stop_on_any_command_fail
. If this is specified, then any Modbus commands that fail will stop all further queries for all bus addresses and attempts.--serial_lock
. If this is set, the program can only be run one at a time (so as not to overload a Modbus device). If the device being queried is a serial device, this will automatically be set to "on". For IP addresses it is optional.--sampling_rate
. If this is defined, and the sampling rate is greater than 1, then all values listed above will be collected as an average. In other words; it will take a sample at the nominated frequency. After X samples defined bysampling_rate
, a record will be written and sent to the cloud.
