Lobaro Pressure and Temperature Sensor

To read out the pressure & temperature probe, the Hybrid Modbus Gateway must be configured as follows:

  • 010300160002 - Read register 22-23 (pressure)
  • 010300260002 - Read register 38-39 (temperature)
  • FA0400050001 - Read internal register 5 (vBat)

The CRON Expressions can be adjusted to set time of sensor reading.

PowerOnDelay3000Battery variant only. Sets time (in ms) between activating sensor power and reading value (time for sensor to be ready).

Modbus Register Mapping

The probe is a Modbus slave with the following registers:

Modbus Command: <Slave Address (1)><Function (1)><Address (2)><Length (2)>

  • Length = Register count -> 1 Register = 2 Bytes
  • Function

    • 0x03 = Read Holding Register
    • 0x04 = Read Input Register
    • 0x06 = Write Holding Register
