4 - 20 mA adc not giving correct values - upstream - 04-14-2026

I am testing the KC868-AIO 4-20 mA analog input with a Fluke 705 Loop Calibrator, but I am not getting correct values.

Source voltage: 24 VDC
Channel AI-16 (see red wire). Black wire is disconnected.

Power source for signal is the same as the source for the AIO board.

Monitor Configuration:

Custom value1: 32
Custom value2: 180

Signal generated: 4.000 mA
value provided: ~52 (it should be 32)

Signal generated: 8.000 mA
value provided: ~79 (it should be 69)

Signal generated: 12.000 mA
value provided: ~104 (it is close to what it should be at 106)

Signal generated: 16.000 mA
value provided: ~131 (it should be 143)

Signal generated: 20.000 mA
value provided: ~167 (it should be 180)

Any idea what is going on?

can't see your photo. do you tested with KCS v2 firmware?

I had updated it to latest firmware 2.2.20.

Now I have a new and bigger problem.

Today I come in and the device is no longer responding. No ping or web access at the static IP I gave it.

When I tried to re-flash it it gave the error:  

"8-download data fail"

I tried with a lower BAUD of 115200 and I have the same error.

I tried to attach an imgur image below with the error:

[Image: 1KFLu6L]

Tried to attach images via upload.

I tried again with a new USB cable and a new USB port and got this error:

5-chip efuse check fail.

you can try to change USB Cable or USB port, maybe can add USB-HUB.
