Connecting sensors to KinCony F16 - kostenko1954 - 08-12-2026

- Without connecting the SHT30 temperature and humidity sensor, the LCD screen displays readings normally.
   
- After connecting the SHT30 temperature and humidity sensor, the LCD screen displays distorted readings.
   
- I tried setting the SHT30 address (I2C) to 0x44, but the address resets the next time the controller is polled.
- I also connected the RS485 JTH-2D1 temperature and humidity sensor to the RS485 port. Its address is: Temperature – 768; Humidity – 769

   
       
- I also connected an analog soil moisture sensor to analog input A1, using an external 3.3V power supply.
   
When the sensor is dry, the reading is 752.
   
When the sensor is submerged, the reading is 757.
   
When testing these sensors in an Arduino UNO R3, the readings are different.
   
How do I configure them in the KinCony ESP32-S3 Tuya relay board – F16 (16A removable relay)?

1: what's your soil moisture sensor output signal? is this dc 0-5v output?
2: maybe your SHT30 board have pull download the power. KCS v3 firmware support RS485 SHT30 sensor by modbus command. just this one: https://shop.kincony.com/products/rs485-temperature-and-humidity-sensor-modbus-rtu-use-by-sht30?_pos=1&_psq=sht3&_psid=18cbe7809&_ss=e
you can check protocol whether as same as your sensor.
