}ConnectingIf you wish to use Modbus TCP the following parameters are relevant:host = IP or DNS name of your Modbus TCP device, requiredport = TCP port of the Modbus TCP device, requiredConnecting to the car charger:>>> import alfen_eve_modbus_tcp

    # Car Charger over Modbus TCP
    >>>  car_charger = alfen_eve_modbus_tcp.CarCharger(host="192.168.2.136", port=502)Test the connection, remember that only a single connection at a time is allowed:>>> car_charger.connect()
    True

    >>> car_charger.connected()
    TrueWhile it is not necessary to explicitly callconnect()before reading registers, you should do so before callingconnected(). The connection can be closed by callingdisconnect().Printing the class yields basic device parameters:>>> car_charger
