I would like to set the “power limit” setting of my Solis 4G mini inverter via Homey. (avoid negative in feed tariff) But when it comes to Modbus I don’t know what I’m doing so I need some help.

I made a Modbus device.  
IP set to the address of the dongle.  
Port 502  
ID 1  
connection type single connect.

Homey says everything is fine.

But how to make the flow to read the current setting? And how to put a new setting in?  
I understand that I have to use registers. I found a document on the site below. Then I think it is register 3050 (page 12)

3050 Power limit actual U16 1% 10000\<–\>100% 3X

But the document also writes  
5.3 Register address of inverter operation information. The function code is 0x04, the register address needs to offset one bit. Example: register address: 3000, the send address is 2999.

If anyone can make an example of the read and write flow I would be grateful.
