Read only selected Packet SoftwareSerial
Your reading methodology is flawed from the start and you need to completely change how you do things.  First off, you wait until there is at least one byte in the incoming buffer, then if that byte is 0x01 you then try and read 5 more bytes - even if there is only (say) 2 bytes in the buffer.

Instead you need to set up a sliding window for receiving the data. A sliding window is basically an array that is the same size as the data you are receiving, and as bytes become available they work their way down from the "top" to the "bottom" of the array. When the contents of the array match a certain pattern you know it is a "good" packet and you can use the data form it.

For example, you may have something like:

uint8_t window[8];

void loop() {
    if (RS485Serial.available()) {
        uint8_t b = RS485Serial.read();
        // Slide the contents of the array down
        for (uint8_t i = 0; i &lt; 7; i++) {
            window[i] = window[i+1];
        }
        // Insert at the top
        window[7] = b;

        // If the array starts with 0x01,0x03,0x40,0x34...
        if ((window[0] == 0x01) &amp;&amp; (window[1] == 0x03) &amp;&amp;
            (window[2] == 0x40) &amp;&amp; (window[3] == 0x34)) {
            // Do something with window[4] and window[5]
        }
    }
}


You could also add checking the CRC to that by comparing the calculated CRC for the incoming packet (however that is done in this protocol) with the last two bytes of the array.
