Home Assistant AddOn Modbus Proxy

Allows you to connect multiple clients to one single modbus server. Usally one modbus server only allows a single connection and denies any more clients.

The addon is only tested and compatible with hassio supervisor.

Installation

Open your Home Assistant instance and show the add add-on repository dialog with a specific repository URL pre-filled.

  • Add This Repository (Or click Button above)
  • Install ModBusProxy from the Add-On Store

Configuration

  • Stop all Clients that currently connect to the modbus server. The Server might need some time before another client (our proxy) can connect.
    • In case you are using solaredge-modbus in homeassistant you can change the server address here: /config/.storage/core.config_entries.
  • Before starting go to the configuration page and set the ip of your modbus server.
  • Start The Add-On
    • This may take a while on the first start as it builds the cointainer locally. If there is more interest ill switch to prebuild containters.
  • Configure Your Clients to connect to your HA IP and choosen port.
  • I recommend not to change the listenport in neither the network section nor the listenport.
