Modbus 64bit float

Hi together,

i bought a meter with a modbus-tcp interface. I can access all registers except those which contain the energy value. According to the datasheet of the meter this is a 64bit numeric value. Unfortunately, this is not available as datatype in the binding. For int and uint 64 types are already existing…

Does someone know a workaround?

Thanks and best,
Luki

There are about eight different ways to assemble the raw registers and bytes into a 64-bit word.

I would recommend first finding out the byte pattern for your source device.
You may be able to read the 4 registers as 64-bit uint, or you might need to read as 16-bit uints and assemble parts into your 64-bit word in the required order…
Then find a java IEE (presumably?) decode for the float data.
