About

Universal Modbus is a custom integration that connects Home Assistant to Modbus TCP devices over the local network. Connections and entities are configured in the Home Assistant UI, with no YAML needed. It reads coils, discrete inputs, holding registers and input registers, and writes coils and holding registers. Values become sensors, binary sensors, switches, buttons, numbers and selects, with scaling, offsets, byte order, word order and optional read and write formulas. A sidebar editor manages several hubs, lets entities be added, edited or duplicated, and shows connection status, response time and communication errors. Hub configurations can be exported and imported, and the export leaves out the IP address.

From the README

Universal Modbus is a custom Home Assistant integration for Modbus TCP devices. Connections and entities are configured through the Home Assistant UI; no YAML configuration is required.

Universal Modbus is developed and maintained by Edelmann Electronics.

  • Create and manage multiple Modbus TCP hubs in the sidebar
  • Read coils, discrete inputs, holding registers, and input registers
  • Write coils and holding registers
  • Create sensor, binary_sensor, switch, button, number, and select entities, including pulsed ToggleSwitch entities
  • Decode bool, int16, uint16, int32, uint32, int64, uint64, and float32 values
  • Configure scaling, offsets, byte order, and word order
  • Use safe per-entity read and write formulas for advanced calculations
  • Use a separate feedback register for writable entities
  • Display and control entity values directly in the sidebar
  • Import and export a complete hub
  • English and German UI translations
