http requesto to toggle switch
#1
Hi all,
i have some B16 currently with the 3.80 kcs firmware.
I had the need to control an output on the module 2 when a DI on module 1 is pressed.
I saw i can do it with custom protocol. I tried with UDP message, but it seems a bit loosy, in some ways each 10 clicks, 2 or 3 are lost,  alternatively i thought i could do it with http call (POST or GET).
The problem is that i don't know how to do it with the KCS firmware, i don't know if there are some preconfigured urls to let the modules relays to be switched on off or toggled.
I saw on ESPHome there are some documentations talking about this possibility, but i'm not sure these are usable on KCS firmware.

Sorry i'm a bit new and i cannot find a way to do this, but i'm pretty sure it can be done easily, and i'm just not able to do it.
Could someone please help me?

sure, KCS v3 firmware support HTTP command, after downloaded KCS v3 firmware, enable the HTTP protocol in KCS config webpage. here is HTTP protocol:

Thaks a lot for the quick reply.
Looking at the protocol i don't see a way to call the toggle action on a output as it can be choosed in the IFTTT.
What is your suggestion to create the behavior i need with this http commands? (I need to toggle a output of module 2 triggered by module 1 with http GET or POST command)
Or is there a way to trigger the ctrl.cgi page and let the IFTTT do the work? Maybe there's a simpler way.

Thanks in advance
Kind regards
