KinCony TS (Tiny Sensor) made by SHT30 temperature and humidity sensor inside.

product size: 20mm*18mm
power supply: DC 9-36V
temperature: -40℃-- +125℃
humidity: 0--100% RH
temperature accuracy: 0.1℃
humidity accuracy: 0.1% RH
communication: RS485
RS485 baud rate: 9600/14400/19200/38400/56000/57600/115200 bps
RS485 address: 1--255 editable
LED D3: power LED
LED D4: running LED (blink with running)
Jumper: RS485 Terminating resistor jumper (make sure last RS485 slave device enable it)

You can read temperature and humidity by PC software via RS485 USB adapter.
you can set KinCony TS by different address and Baud.

I've just discovered, through trial and error, that at least MQTT servers don't need to be specified by IP address but can also be specified by DNS name.  So in the Protocol -> General page, for the MQTT Broker Address, you can enter mqtt://mosquitto.lan instead of mqtt://192.168.1.200 (or whatever) and it'll work fine.  This is quite convenient since you no longer have to hardcode in IP addresses for everything.

Hi There,

I have recently started using the KC868-A16 board and it is an excellent board.
I have loaded it with ESP Home and it is working well.
It is connected to my network via Ethernet for reliability and I also wish to enable Bluetooth on the board so as to use it as a gateway for BLE sensors in ESP Home and Home Assistant.
Do you know is it possible to use Bluetooth and Ethernet in the same ESP Home configuration on the KC868-A16 board?
I know W-Fi and Bluetooth  can work at the same time but I want use Ethernet as Wi-Fi coverage is poor at the location.

If I can use Ethernet and Bluetooth would you have an example ESP Home configuration for Bluetooth?

Thanks,

Ed.

I currently have 2 panels with some 16a Finder (20.21.9.024.4000) 24v dc relays, these relays controls some lights and blinds, the blinds have a sequencing to it (open, pause, close, pause, open) currently they are being toggled by a switch/interruptor.

I've watched some videos from kincony and looks like I could use the kc868-h32bs, I guess my question is if this is the best option, I basically want to make these relays available on alexa, and it feels like I'd connect the existing switches to the inputs from the kc868-h32bs and then the output would go to the finder relay. is there another way of achieving this? My concern is making sure that the board knows when the relay is on/off as it needs to know if the lights are turned on / off to work properly.

the problem though is that connecting the switch to the board directly would leave it without a backup in case the board has any issues, so it wouldnt be possible to control the lights directly in that case, I wanted to have a backup if possible, I'm not sure if theres a way of the board detecting the relay state otherwise

(Im a software engineer, so not too familliar with hardware, any help is appreciated, I wanna make sure I order the right products for the setup)

Hello Community,

I want to use the KC868-A8M to do the following:

• use it as Wifi AP (Which is easy and I have accomplished) to have access with my phone
  
• read data with the KC868-A8M from a web server from another device via Ethernet (Ethernet is connected to another device which creates the web server)
  
• red data via http get requests
  

Good day, admin, please tell me, do you have a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLUGJtZg1aQ, the description says the following "how to slove A32 Pro/A24 DAC dimmer"

However, I do not see the inscription on the case as for the A32 PRO DA1 and DA2 in the lower right corner of the case is located on the A32 Pro

So does the KinCony A24 https://aliexpress.ru/item/1005006364867...757axPMWYQ 
have dimmer control? If so, where are the inscriptions?

Thanks

My module (KC868-A) is connected via ethernet and I want it to be an access point via WiFi. How to set up a configuration file in esp home in home assistance ?

I have bought a kincony 868A6. The first time, red led power in on and 6 other red leds are blinking and clicking. I have a 12V power. But now only the red led power is on. No blinking and no clicking for the 6 red leds.
Unpossible to use flashtools. The board is recognized whan i put the usb. But nothing other. Is the board out of order? I try to reset it with the button. Nothing.
What can i do? Send to the seller? thanks for your answer

Hi,
I just received my M16 and I flash it with ESPHome. Everything seems to work properly but the logs are flooded by a Warning that I don't know how to solve. I saw a post similar and putting the frequency at 400kHz solved the problem but not for me. Here is a snapshot of thoses warnings:

Seeking Advice: Automating a CO₂-Controlled Bioreactor System with Raspberry Pi & KinCony

Hi everyone,
I’m building a temporary immersion bioreactor system for tissue culturing trees for restoration projects. I want to design a scalable, automated system that integrates CO₂ monitoring, solenoid-controlled gas flow, and light automation—with the ability to log data for future AI optimization.

System Overview:

• Bioreactors: 10 shelves, each with 10 bioreactors (total of 100).
  
• Aeration:
  • Each bioreactor receives CO₂-enriched air from a pump inside a CO₂ incubator (for sterilization and elevated CO₂ levels).
    
  • I plan to monitor CO₂ levels in 1 vessel per shelf (10 total monitored vessels).
    
  • The CO₂ sensor data will control a solenoid valve (normally closed) to regulate CO₂ for the entire shelf.
    
• Lighting:
  • I want automated lighting with control based on PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) or intensity.
    
• Data Logging & AI Integration:
  • The system should log all data (CO₂ levels, light intensity, etc.) for future AI-driven optimization.
    

• I plan to use a Raspberry Pi as the main controller.
  
• I’ve come across KinCony products and believe they could provide a solution. Has anyone used KinCony for similar automation projects?
  
• I’d love suggestions for CO₂ sensors, solenoid controllers, and light intensity sensors that integrate well with a Raspberry Pi & KinCony setup.
  
• I want to allow for future expansion, so modularity and scalability are key.
