Hello,

My KC868-COLB is no longer visible on my network,

The UDP Blue LED and Server Yellow LED are flashing on and off together for approx 2 sec on, 2 sec off.

I have tried pressing and holding the Ethernet M button as described in the user guide but the LED's are not lighting up to switch modes. Nothing happens when i hold this button in.

Is there a way to do a reset on this board?

My tiny alarm seems to be transmitting a wifi signal (AP?)  "SmartLife-C886" how do i disable that?

Hello,
I started working over new home automation project and I bought Server 16 with raspberry pi & nodered. Board is working fine with rs485 sensors, but I'm planning to use relays to control electric circuits and I have two major difficulties :
1) by default I want to have circuits off (NC), I changed settings of all relays in nodered to invert switches, but when board starts it triggers all relays for a moment ON and after moment all goes to OFF. It means that all connected electric equipment will start for a less a second - this is very unwanted behaviour, how to avoid that?
2) I'm planning to use digital inputs to control relays with momentary buttons, but input seams to be connected with relays and input has to be shorted with GND all the time, how to change that, so relay will be toggled wen button is pushed for a moment?  I don't want to use bistable buttons, as relay will be connected with nodered and homeassistant in parallel and wall buttons will have different state than circuit 

Beet regards 
Podlak

1. fixed bug: update energy data to home assistant by MQTT.

1. fixed bug for energy data and power factor.
you can download by bootloader.exe tool by RS485.
ARM BIN file download:

  N10203060_KU_V20_251231.zip (Size: 13.11 KB / Downloads: 20)

bootloader.exe tool: 
  KC868 Controller Bootloader.zip (Size: 8.56 KB / Downloads: 18)
   
1. set baud rate=38400bps.
2. open com port.
3. power on Nx board, during LED fast blink when the "bootloader Detect" button right now. Then board will go to bootloader mode.
4. open BIN file
5. press "Download" button, begin download firmware, after finished, press "Run" button, ARM CPU begin work.
   

Hi, 

in the modbus specifiaction from N30 it is mentioned that Energy Sensor from BL0910 has a resolution of 1kWh only.

Is there any way to get a more accurat reading? For power circuits with low consumption it is misleading to see 0kWh consumption on end of day.

Does the BL0910 has a possibility to report for example 0,1kWh as resolution for Energy Consumption?

Thank you.

Hello
I need help with setup wallpad using modbus:
google drive with manual:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1...drive_link

i have some errors, code from ai

I have 4 KC868-E16P-V2.3 with firmware version 2.2.14, after about one week, they go offline, no TUYA access(TUYA show Offline), and there is no Web-access. I have to power off/on to make them come online. It's random witch controller who goes offline, but all of them goes offline during one week or so.
They are powered by a MeanWell 12V 2.5A DIN-rail powersupply.

Hello

What is the suitable power supply voltage for KC868-16 - is the 13,5 V ok as well? Whats the minimum?

Hey there, 

some feedback and problems we detected on two N30 devices.

• Flash Guide with ESP Download Tool is incomplete, the guideline let you think to use the KCS bin file only. This is not correct, you will need more files (partion etc) to be able to flash.
  ESPHome Webflasher is the solution as it also accept the KCS Firmware File.
  

• EnergyConsumption in kWh seems to be not working in KCS Firmware (major bug!) Same problem as in Link
  

• Voltage Calibration is not possible in KCS Firmware
  
  
• Are negative power readings possible? 
  

• If yes, can there be an independent energy calculation per input for positive/negative consumption readings?
