I have difficulty reading PM5100 modbus registers from Modbus communication tester software tool such as Modscan 64.
All the registers are not returning right readings compare to readings on the power meter screen.
Registers such as line currents ( 3000, 3002, 3004)
Line voltages (3020, 3022, 3024)
I will appreciate your support

As MetthewM wrote check the availablitiy to show two values as one floating point value. Modscan should offer this ability. Here a screenshot from the user manual
Additional there could be also the topic that you have to check if need to start to read at register adress 0 or 1. To validate this is could be usefull to read first a 16Bit value to check that you use the right start point. You could use in that case Register adress 2017 (frequency).

Just to cover off the basics first, are you remembering to read it is a Float32 (3000 and 3001)? If Modscan can't do it directly, bung the two words into an online converter.

I eventually got it solved when I used float32 for the registers. It worked perfectly. Thanks
