Flush-mounting microprocessor sensors for ambient temperature and humidity measurement baud rate 9600
Measures ambient temperature and humidity via flush-mounted microprocessor sensor.
This template reads ambient temperature and relative humidity from a SETECNA EPC MB-TH-9K6-SXX flush-mounted sensor over Modbus RTU. It provides 0.1°C and 0.1% RH resolution and allows calibration offsets for both measurements.

Use cases
- Monitor room temperature and humidity on a live cloud dashboard for building comfort verification.
- Create an alert when relative humidity exceeds 70% RH to prevent mould formation in sensitive areas.
- Log historical temperature trends to verify HVAC system performance over weeks or months.
- Adjust calibration offsets remotely through the ModbusCloud platform without visiting the site.
- Compare readings from multiple MB-TH-9K6-SXX sensors across different zones in a single building.
Installation
Wire the MB-TH-9K6-SXX sensor to the RS-485 terminals (A and B) of your ModbusCloud Gateway, ensuring correct polarity and proper bus termination.
Set the slave address on the sensor to a unique value between 1 and 255, avoiding conflicts with other devices on the same bus.
Confirm the serial parameters on the gateway match the sensor: 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.
Import the SETECNA EPC MB-TH-9K6-SXX template from the ModbusCloud template library and assign it to the correct gateway port and slave address.
Verify that actual temperature and relative humidity values appear on the ModbusCloud dashboard and check the readings against a reference measurement.
Things to watch for
The gateway reports communication errors with the MB-TH-9K6-SXX sensor. What should I check?
Verify that the baud rate on the gateway is set to 9600, not 19200 or another value. Also confirm that parity is set to None, data bits to 8, and stop bits to 1. Check RS-485 wiring polarity and bus termination.
Temperature readings seem slightly off compared to a reference thermometer. How can I correct this?
Use the Temperature Calibration Offset register exposed by the template to apply a correction. Write a positive or negative offset value in 0.1°C increments to align the reading with your reference.
Can I connect multiple MB-TH-9K6-SXX sensors to one gateway?
Yes. Each sensor must have a unique Modbus slave address between 1 and 255. Connect all sensors in a daisy-chain topology on the same RS-485 bus and add a separate template instance per sensor in ModbusCloud.
The sensor does not respond after power-up. What could be wrong?
Ensure the sensor is properly powered and seated in the 503 box. Check that the RS-485 A and B lines are not swapped. Allow a few seconds after power-on before polling, as the microprocessor needs a short initialization time.
