Hibrid project - Psyos - 03-09-2025
Good afternoon, I would like to know if you can help me with a project to be carried out. I needed a hybrid system, that is, control lights, blinds, gate motors via Home Assistant and at the same time manually in case the server is damaged. The server I want to use is KC868-Server16.
I needed to know if I have to add the KC868-A16V3 module and subsequently relays.
Thank you very much

server16 have 16 channel digital output. if you want use by home assistant, it's ok, just need add KC868-E16v2 extend relay module.
if your loads more than 16 channel, you can add KC868-A16v3 to extend the GPIO.

Good morning, I have another question regarding the KC868-E16v2. This can be 12v or 24v. From what I know, in industry it is more common due to greater stability, to use a 24v power supply. KC868-Server 16 channel operates at 12V. However, searching the resources ( https://www.kincony.com/raspberry-pi-iot-gateway.html ) one of the images indicates Power in DC 12-24V. I was confused, if you could confirm it for me, I would appreciate it. Even if I need to use 12V for the server, can I use the KC868-E16v2 on 24V? Of course, in this case, only 2 power supplies would be needed, one of 12V and the other of 24V. Thank you very much.

Server16 use by DC12V power.
KC868-E16v2 have two version: 12V and 24V you can buy any one.
Server16 is relay output dry contact signal, so you can connect with any KC868-E16v2 board.
