Notes

RS-485 device: reach it through a Modbus RTU-to-TCP gateway using the factory serial settings above (address 1, 19200 bps, 8 data bits, even parity, 1 stop bit). Source: Kipp & Zonen 'SMP series smart pyranometer' manual SO-KZ-RE-mn-SMP_Series-EN-GL-231130 (30.11.2023), freely downloadable from https://cdn.hach.com/1XMCM0ZF/at/5jt5827v32k5c74ncf4vg8/SO-KZ-RE-mn-SMP_Series-EN-GL-231130.pdf: chapter 15.2 'Input registers overview' (printed pages 36-39) for the integer registers and for the 'Real time floating data points' block starting at PDU address 10000 (page 38), chapter 15.3 for holding register 34, chapter 15.5/15.6 for the 0.1 V / 0.1 degC / 0.1 W/m2 scaling of the integer registers, and chapter 8.1 for the factory communication settings. The PDU addresses in those tables are the wire addresses used here. The instruments do not distinguish holding from input registers, so read-only values are also available with function code 03. Radiation is reported in W/m2 but its number of decimals is set by the scale factor register (input register 4 / holding register 34); the scale factors here assume the common factory scale factor 0. In the cited 2023 edition, registers 15/16 of the integer table are SMP12-only (0.1 ° / 0.1 %), so they are not modelled; the floating-point tilt and humidity values (FL_TILT 10020, FL_RH 10022) are documented for every SMP model and are listed, while the SMP12-only tilt roll/pitch pair (20000/20002) is left out.
