Why the RF remote control 433MHZ not 868 MHZ?
And if i had different wireless system 433 and 868 MHz at the same house , am i able to change the frequency if conflict with other systems ?

I'm new to this system and need to start a new project soon and test that on my house network first.
I had before X10 modules that are 220 volt coil and each module for one circuit single phase with momentary switch, mobile apps and RF remote i had 1 home automation panel that contain all house interior floors lighting load that are coming from 2 sources main and emergency through 3 DB's 
Then finally the automation panel contain the following
1- 2 sources main, emergency 3 phases
2- 3 DBs each are 3 phases
3. All relays are 220 volt coil and distributed each phase and source

If you are trying to replace the system to DC coil 12 volt then you need for each source and single phase a separate AC 220v/ 12 vdc converter
This mean that you need for the automation panel 
3 converters for emergency to present each phase.
6 converters for main 3 for each DB.
Then i need to convert to DC 9 separate converters.
Other wise you will use single phase for emergency as an example phase R convert to DC 12 v and feed all controllers if this phase failed all system will be off.

I really need to know the big reason behind the all system 12 v DC coils !?
And is any way to release version with 220 v AC coil?

You applied free sample KC868-A8 have sent by YANWEN, tracking number is VR445934410YP .

Hope your project goes well and share everyone your achievements.

Is this a possibility to use the open source OpenSprinkler ported firmware ?

If there is no technical barrier, then I guess the I/O of this board needs to be matched on the OpenSprinkler build I/O ?
Thanks.

3: Ethernet work mode = "TCP Client"

your software is a "server", controller is "client". when power on, controller will auto connect to your software by ethernet. just "client" will auto connect to "server".

4: WiFi work mode = "TCP Client" instead by MQTT in new firmware

your software is a "server", controller is "client". when power on, controller will auto connect to your software by wifi. just "client" will auto connect to "server".

5: Ethernet work mode = "TCP Client"; WiFi work mode = "TCP Server"

A. your software is a "server", controller is "client". when power on, controller will auto connect to your software by ethernet.

B. controller is a "server", you software is "client".

use one KC868-COL/COLB/COLBS send command to KC868-H32BS, KC868-D8 dimmer controller by RS485 modbus. MAX support 254 devices.

   

Hi,
I just opened and connected by COLB. I am able to visualize the change of status of the DI input ports from the smart board controller app.
I would like to know
1. what is the procedure to update the firmware step by step - I could not find the right thread in the forum, sorry if I missed something
2. I cannot connect to the web interface where to configure the MQTT server - I can only see the interface as attached to this message.

Any help is welcome!

Thanks
Lee

improvement:

support set domain for your own server. old version only set server IP address by number. This verison can set by a server domain name for TCP and MQTT server, added DNS function.

download the ZIP file , unzip update the bin file for KC868-H32BS relay controller by USB-RS232 cable.

Hi
I have H32L I connect it to home assistant : https://www.kincony.com/how-to-create-sw...stant.html
When I power on or off channel from switch terminal board  or wall push bottom it power on but the real status not update on home assistant  app is not changing the status in home assistant to on or off
i work whit node-red ,          , need help whit this
