For example, this is what some of the code looks like in notepad ++ versus the formating in the html text in the browser… 
I worked through all the context stuff, and got it working.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!!
On to the NEXT custom integrations…
Thanks John!

Can I connect Directly to the SCP, Its the only monitoring accessory I have, no Gateway or ComBox.
@Kramos As far as I know, connecting directly to the SCP is a non-starter. Schnieder’s Conext devices talk with each other via the Xanbus protocol. A Gateway or older ComBox does the conversion between their proprietary Xanbus and standard Modbus protocols. So, one or the other is required to make a connection with their devices.
Hey pal, can you provide me with you .yaml files? o paste the yaml here with code brackets?
Update 1: No problem i just saw the example you posted above lol
Update 2: Added sensors yaml as provided by @johnnyc , will edit again and add the configuration.yaml scheme
Update 3: I notice the modbus configuration style has changed and also the data_input syntax now you have to declare the full type for example int must be int16 or int32 and so on, uint must be uint16, uint32 or uint64. Other wise you will have an error. Withe the old style as it is right now you will get Integrate sensors error. I have fix the syntax and currently working on updating the data types. I have change all of the values to meet my current inverter which is a XW+6848, @johnnyc i would update all the values by making a copy of your spreadsheet, i will send you the file once updated so you add those to the document. Thanks for making all of this 
Will update soon.
Update 4: Added the new syntax style for config scheme, added scan_interval to grid power for my use case with XW+6848, but be aware that you can add these to your entries to refresh the data more frequently. Hope this helps!

I have a CSW4048 with the Battery Monitor and an XW SCP as well as the Generator Start.
I would love to get this working on my Home Assistant but I am having trouble getting it to connect properly.
I have added the code @Kramos posted above and change the IP address to my system as well as set the slave to 90 for my SW4048 I also had to change the line “input_type: input” to “input_type: holding” other wise I would not get any data. But now the data makes no sense just very long strings of numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It appears that the Modbus mapping is different for the SW4048. Does anyone have a link for the correct mapping. I cant find it anywhere on schneiders website.
thanks in advance for any help.
Never mind I got is all worked out. thanks for the head start
Just saw this post. Glad you got it working. What did you do to get it worked out with your CSW4048 setup?
Could you elaborate a bit more on how you solved your issue. I am in exact same position, and so far failed to make it work.
Hi @Kramos thanks for sharing. Can u added all your config in github ?
I dont have Conext Gateway, but i will try use Combox.
Thnkyou,
this may be of help.
Found this a long time ago. Think it describes the underlying modbus protocol xantrex used for the devices.
Hello, my config file is the same that i have posted above. Nochanges and nothing different from what is there, as for the Combox, you need to found the Modbus Map for the device, then go ahead and convert your HEX Modbus Addressed to decimal. I have been very busy a lot of thing going on i havent had a chance to provide @johnnyc with the updated documents, which is his i just added a couple stuff, but since he is the owner it is up to him to share it. As soon as i can i will provide him with the updated document.
Great information, thanks
I have done some research, i would like to go forward and see if we can make this an integration, to have a seamless configuration. But will see, cant promise anything anytime soon.
Sorry for the delayed response.
The first thing I had to do was go into my Combox configuration and change the Modbus Bight Order to MSB first.
After that all I had to do was edit my configuration.yaml
Here is a sample of what I added that worked for me:

I’m new to all this. I’m probably doing this in the wrong place. I just installed Casa OS on a RaspberryPi and installed home assistant in a docker. Can someone tell me how to get the data from my Schneider Sw4048 into home assistant? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
I am confused as to what hardware I need between my Conext SW 2524 and Home assistant to make this integration work. I presume that I would either need the Xantrex combox or SE Insight gateway.
Is there another hardware solution that is not going to cost me $300-$400? I have Solar Assistant running on a RPi but SA doesn’t support Schneider inverters.
@cleverjay In order for this to work you need one of the two devices as schneider uses their own fork of Modbus called xanbus and the Combox or Gateway can translate to the original modbus.

Do you have the combox or gateway installed on your system?
I seem to have the same issue @m0ngr31 was experiencing (sensor flipping between “Unavailable” and a good value, seemingly every other update).
This is from the log:
Logger: homeassistant.components.modbus.modbus
Source: components/modbus/modbus.py:388
Integration: Modbus (documentation, issues)
First occurred: 9:21:58 PM (2 occurrences)
Last logged: 9:22:28 PM
Pymodbus: conext_gateway: Modbus Error: [Connection] ModbusTcpClient(192.168.1.113:503): Connection unexpectedly closed 0.000019 seconds into read of 8 bytes without response from unit before it closed connection
Pymodbus: conext_gateway: Modbus Error: [Connection] ModbusTcpClient(192.168.1.113:503): Connection unexpectedly closed 0.000028 seconds into read of 8 bytes without response from unit before it closed connection
This is my config.yaml:
modbus:
- name: conext_gateway
type: tcp
host: 192.168.1.113
port: 503
delay: 2
timeout: 14
sensors:
- name: "XW Inverter Enabled"
data_type: uint16
input_type: input
slave: 10
address: 71
I have a flow set up in Node-RED using the node-red-contrib-modbus package and reliably receive the value every time with any poll rate I choose (500ms up to ten minutes).
I have the Conext Gateway Facility, 2x XW Pro, 4x MPPT 100 600, and EG4 batteries (with closed-loop communication to the gateway). No matter which device I target, it’s the same error in the log. My log snippet is after a clear, but it was up over 30 of the same error from Pymodbus.
I have tried different delays and timeouts with no success. Obviously a fix would be nice, but I would be willing to live with throwing away the “Unavailable” readings and keeping the actual readings. Do you guys know of a way to do that?
Thanks for sharing the configuration. I have the XWPro6848 using your sensors.yaml I’m receiving this readings in these 2 sensor:
Any thoughts of what could gone wrong? Thanks in advance for your help.
