RS485/Modbus support?

opened 09:25PM - 03 Apr 22 UTC

I am looking at some industrial humidity/temperature sensors that use the Modbus… protocol (RS485) such as this: https://www.vaisala.com/en/products/instruments-sensors-and-other-measurement-devices/instruments-industrial-measurements/hmd110-hmw110 I am wondering if there is a way to integrate Modbus sensors as a custom input? I am considering interfacing them by using an RS485 shield https://www.hwhardsoft.de/english/projects/rs485-arduino/ and then using the Arduino to convert the data to i2c. What do you think about this approach? Thank you!
