Connect another HP over MQTT with Elfin-EW11-WiFi to RS485

  1. Is this feasible ? Can EmonCMS directly interpret these Modbus registers, or do I need middleware?
  2. Server Configuration: What settings (polling frequency, data scaling, register mapping) are needed to:
  • Read raw Modbus data
  • Convert hex values (e.g., 0x004A → 20°C)
  • Store them as labeled metrics (e.g.,supply_temp)
  1. Tool Recommendations: Are there pre-built scripts/tools for this, or will custom coding be required?

“ambient_temp”: 0x004A,
“supply_temp”: 0x0050,
“return_temp”: 0x004F,
“compressor_freq”: 0x0040,
“water_flow”: 0x0058
