Post: Hello, Here we go, I am not a brilliant coder, nor an electronics expert and I take a long time to absorb new stuff (I'm 65). I am an enthusiastic Radio Amateur. G6SGA I am trying to do the following -- WeatherStation: I have an Anemometer and a windVane both RS485. Idea is to connect as follows Vane/Anemometer >> RPi RS485hat/to RPizeroW -- supported via a Solar Panel>BuckConverters and a 12VLiOn battery -- [b]Sensors:[/b] Jeffergarden Signal Output Polycarbonate Wind Speed Sensor Anemometer Wind Direction Table Wind Speed Hongzer Wind Anemometer, Pulse Signal Output Aluminium Alloyed Wind Speed Sensor Anemometer PiHat -- https://www.abelectronics.co.uk/p/77/rs485-pi Current issue: iPi3 -- talking to the RPi rs485 .... I need python code that will do this. and this is my problem - I have had these devices for over 12 months and I just can't seem to get anything to work. -- I am missing something fundamental. (Brain). RPizeroW - seems to be setup pretty well and I can make any changes and have backups of the SDCard. I can connect to PiZeroW via SSH or VNC and my python IDE is on a Win10-PC with a shred drive set up between PC<>NAS<>RPi Synology NAS box. .... in fact I can connect to the RPiZeroW from anywhere on my home network including an iMAC & a MacBook. I have written (copied somebodies idea) py code that flashes an LED. Hello world with LED. The comms for both the Wind direction sensor and the Anemometer are the same Baud, 9600, 8,N,1 with CRC Modbus RTU Registers: [b]Anemometer :[/b] 0016H [40017](plc) read-only - Wind Speed 0.1m/s 0100H [40101] R/W device address (0-252) 0101H [40102] R/W Baud(2400/4800/9600) [b]Inquiry Frame:[/b] Address [0x01] --- Function [0x03] --- Start address [0x00 0x16] --- Data Length [0x00 0x01] --- CRC_L [0x65] --- CRC_H [0xCE] [b]Answer Frames [/b](for example; reading a wind speed of 2.3m/s) Address [0x01] --- Function [0x03] --- Number of valid bytes [0x02] --- Wind Speed value [0x00 0x17] --- CRC_L [0xF8] --- CRC_H [0x4A] Calculated output speed: 0017H (hexadecimal) = 23 => Wind Speed = 2.3ms # ============================================== Registers: [b]Wind Direction :[/b] 0000H [40001](plc) R only - direction 1deg 0100H [40101] R/W device address (0-252) 0101H [40102] R/W Baud(2400/4800/9600) # ============================================== [b]Request [/b]Frame Address(1 byte) --- Function(1 byte) --- Register Origin(2 bytes) --- Length(2 bytes) --- Check Code_L (1 byte) --- Check Code_H(1 byte) 0x02 --- 0x03 --- 0x00,0x00 --- 0x00,0x01 --- 0xFD --- 0x39 [b]Response[/b] Frame Address(1 byte) --- Function(1 byte) --- Effective byte(1 byte) --- Date1 1(2 bytes) --- Date (2 bytes) --- Date N(2 bytes) --- Wind Direction --- Check Code_L (1 byte) --- Check Code_H(1 byte) 0x02 --- 0x03 --- 0x02 --- 0x00,0x8A --- 0xFD --- 0xA0 e.g. Wind Direction 008AH(Hex) = 138=>Wind Direction = South-southeast So anybody tell me what python libraries to use, and even give me example code that will request data and output the responses. Just something more ideas. If anybody wishes to talk direct to help with this please email stephen.g6sgs+abel [at] gmail.com Thanks so very much
