SMA Adapter
Reads power meter data via Smart Meter Adapter over WLAN
Overview
This template reads real-time power and cumulative energy data from the Österreichs Energie Smart Meter Adapter over Modbus TCP via WLAN. It captures net power, total energy imported, and total energy exported from compatible smart meters such as those provided by Salzburg AG.
Key readings
Total energy exported
Total energy imported
Net power
Use cases
Monitor net power consumption and feed-in on a live cloud dashboard for residential PV customers.
Track cumulative energy import and export over time to verify utility billing accuracy.
Create an alert when net power exceeds a defined threshold, indicating unexpected high consumption.
Generate monthly energy reports for customers showing grid import versus solar export.
Compare energy export trends across multiple sites equipped with the Smart Meter Adapter.
Installation
1Ensure the Smart Meter Adapter is connected to your local WLAN network and has a static IP address assigned.
2Connect the ModbusCloud gateway (MCG or MLP series) to the same network as the Smart Meter Adapter.
3In the ModbusCloud portal, add a new Modbus TCP device and enter the IP address and port of the Smart Meter Adapter.
4Import the SMA SmartMeterAdapter Österreichs Energie template from the ModbusCloud template library.
5Verify that live values for net power, total energy imported, and total energy exported appear on the dashboard.
6If readings show zero or no connection, confirm the adapter is powered on and reachable by pinging its IP address from the gateway network.
Things to watch for
01
What Modbus TCP port does the Smart Meter Adapter use?
The adapter typically uses the default Modbus TCP port 502. Confirm in the adapter's configuration interface if your unit uses a different port.
02
Do I need RS-485 wiring for this adapter?
No. The Smart Meter Adapter communicates over WLAN using Modbus TCP. No RS-485 cabling is required between the gateway and the adapter.
03
What register data type is used?
All registers in this template are uint16. No special byte-order or data-type adjustments are needed in the ModbusCloud device configuration.
04
Where can I purchase the Smart Meter Adapter?
The adapter is available from Salzburg AG. Contact your local energy provider to confirm availability and compatibility with your installed smart meter.
