Kincony Server 16 Modbus

[Setornam]

Hello sir,

Please I have purchased a Kincony Server 16 (Rasberry Pi4 IoT gateway) and set it up with Home Assistant. I want to connect an energy meter via the RS485 modbus serial port of the Kincony Server 16 so that I can monitor the meter values on my Home Assistant Dashboard. How do I go about this? I have checked your YouTube website and the only video concerning an energy meter was setup with ESPHome but this server does not have an ESP device so I want to be able to do this without ESP.

do you using KinCony RS485 energy meter? if YES, you can integrate by modbus.
actually it's same code, just you modify the configure.yaml for home assistant.

# I have put my comments next to the parameters I need clarity on. 
My main issue is the PIN numbers and the esphome references.
I need clarity on its server 16 equivalent. Thank you.

tx_pin: 33 # Should this be the same since its not an ESP32 or 14
rx_pin: 32 # # Should this be the same since its not an ESP32 or 15

just set rx,tx pin with KinCony Server16 board's RS485 rx, tx pin define.
