Get data from a SMP3-1 on a CR350 with modbus RS485


LoggerBV25 May 21, 2025 08:33 AM

Hi,

I can't figure how to retrieve data on a SMP3-1 Kipp & Zonen pyranometer, I have seen the instruction manual, the comlunication manual, and I'm working with CRBasic to make a simple program but, all value still zero.

 

'CR350 Series Datalogger
'Declare Public Variables 

Public PTemp, batt_volt,ModbusData(20),Result

'Define Data Tables
DataTable (Test,1,-1)
  DataInterval (0,30,Sec,10)
  Minimum (1,batt_volt,FP2,0,False)
  Sample (1,PTemp,FP2)
  Sample (1,ModbusData(),FP2)
EndTable

'Main Program
BeginProg
  Scan (5,Sec,0,0)
    PanelTemp (PTemp,50)
    Battery (batt_volt)

    'Retrieve Modbus Data
    ModbusClient (Result,Com2,19200,1,4,ModbusData(),5,20,3,100)   

    'Enter other measurement instructions
    'Call Output Tables
    CallTable Test
  NextScan
EndProg

 

I'm looking for the values 5, 6, 10 and 11 on the input registers.

Waht Am I missing ?

EDIT : I said a SMP3-1 (twice) but it's a SMP3-A for "amperage" because there also a 4-20mA ouput.

Hey,

I tried like hours to deal with it but, I couldn't figure it out, I have no clue to success with this, and that's a real problem for me here, I should already had put this on the field :/.

Somebody have an idea on this ?
