I looked through the manuals, but did not see anything about the Modbus addresses. I would start with the most common 40001

You could also use a serial port sniffer software to capture the data from LCSoft to see if it is using Modbus.

Try this:

- Add a ListBox to the form
- Add a button to the form
- Double click the button
- Add this code
        Dim v() As String = ModbusASCIICom1.Read("40001", 50)
        For i = 0 To v.Length - 1
            ListBox1.Items.Add(i & " : " & v(i))
        Next

- Run the app and click the button

See if any of those values are what you need.

so i found the register

but for some reason there is a bit of diffrence in the value

you can see in the video

https://drive.google.com/file/d/17kS12IumcwqEjkdUTpbioauRn_LOVvhm/view?usp=sharing

it looks like nothing
but in this case the value will be much higher
so the diffrence will grow bigger

any idea why?
or how i can fix it ?

but i wanna try the code you sent too
i will tell you the results

Is the value really different? Because of it fluctuating, it is hard to tell.

In your BasicLabel, set ValueScaleFactor to 0.01

Reduce the value of 50 to 10. Maybe there are not 50 registers in the device

All Delta related products  Holding register address starts at  4096 .

 If master is 1 based , it would be 4097 .

In modscan its first Modbus address is seen as 44097 or 404097 , if in six digits format.

Good Luck.
