Modbus Data_Type = "BCD"

Use Case

Hi. A Modbus device delivers some Registers as data_type = BCD. For example the "Date & Time" information via 3 Bytes (24bit) as BCD.

So far, I did not find a way to decode these registers :-(

Question is: Is there a way to decode BCD coded registers? or could this become a new feature??

Thanks for your the brillliant "Telegraf" Cheers Jurgen

Expected behavior

Decode for example: Read 3-bytes and assign 4-bits per digit and assign 2 digits to the 1st number ( e.g.: the day) assign 2 digits to the 2nd number (e.g.: the month) assign 2 digits to the 3rd number ( e.g. 2 digit year) etc.

Actual behavior

??
