ModbusTCP retrieve GX type, Venus OS version

How can I get the GX device type (CCGX, Venus, Octo, Cerbo, ...) via Modbus?

How can I get the OS version running on that device?


I've searched https://github.com/victronenergy/dbus_modbustcp, but seem unable to find answers to these.

You can login to console and run dbus-spy. You will find what you are looking for under "platform".

No?

No such information there.


Moreover I am trying to write a generic modbus manager and to find out e.g. if there is one or two relays present, it would be swell to find out - via Modbus - if I am e.g. talking to a Venus or a CCGX.
