We improved ethernet relay module — KC868-H4B for smart home automation DIY.
1: Both have ethernet port and WiFi port.
2: Ethernet and WiFi work at the same time,you can use LAN application and WAN app at the same time, if internet broken , you can also use LAN application to control relay.
3:Ethernet and WiFi module wokr mode control by setting buttons and have LEDs for show work status.

4. What kind of relay is used in KC868-h4B?
277VAC/10A relay.
5. Which control ways does KC868-h4B support?
iPhone, Android phone, PC, wireless remoter , wall switch, Google home / Amazon Alexa speaker for voice control.
6. What are the network access modes of KC868-h4B?
It supports Ethernet and WiFi wireless network access.
7. If there is no Internet, can we use KC868-h4B?
Provide LAN version of mobile app and PC software, can be used in the environment without Internet, work in local network.
8. How can KC868-h4B be used in both local LAN and Internet WAN?
KC868-h4B adopts dual core network communication module. Ethernet and WiFi can be configured to work in different network environment modes at the same time.One is work in local network , another is work for remote connect with cloud server.
9. How to ensure the reliability of KC868-h4B network?
For example, both Ethernet and WiFi are set to Internet UDP mode to connect to the cloud server. When the cable network is disconnected or WiFi is disconnected, KC868-h4B will automatically switch the Ethernet / WiFi line to keep the communication with the cloud server smooth.
10. If house power failure, will relay output state of KC868-h4B be automatically restored?
KC868-h4B will automatically restore the relay state before power failure. For example: before the power failure, 1-3 lights are ON; when power on again, the 1-3 lights will be turned ON automatically.
11. If there is power failure at home and power supply is restored, do you need to restart KC868-h4B?
Without restart, KC868-h4B will automatically work without manually reboot.
