I am integrating my RUT X11 Router via Modbus over OpenVPN so I can monitor its status centrally in Home Assistant. Once I have a working config I am happy with I will share back with the community here.
the wiki at:
tells me the unit of measurement is 0.1 Celsius
the X11 reports its temperature as 240 which if I multiply by 0.1 is 24C
Well inside my vehicle (on the driveway where it hasn’t moved for a few days) it’s currently around 2.4C! (outside temperature 2.2C)
So can I check please:
A) is the Wiki incorrect ? and its actually measuring in 0.01 (which would make the current van temperature about right) , or
B) Is it actually measuring the Router CPU temperature? not the ambient enclosure temperature ? for which 24 C could be a reasonable figure ? but my gut feel is a little low ?
The Wiki is correct, it is measured in 0.1 celsius
It is measuring the temperature of the mobile module that is on the PCB of the device, 24C is reasonable, mine, for example, is 44 celsius on idle.
Not sure I understood this one right, but everywhere I looked, the values themselves have a “-” in front of them, where as the measuring unit “dBm” does not, due to the fact that the number already has the negative sign.
Ah, I see, thanks for clarifying. It’s weird, since on the WebUI, under Status → Network → Mobile the signal values shown are okay (by okay, I mean that they’re shown with a “-” in front of them).
