Brick Problem with DS1307 on KC868-A6
Posted by: Ramalcu - 08-13-2024, 07:11 PM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (20)

Hello,
 
I received a KC868-A6 few days ago. I have been able to read and write both PCF8574 but I’m having issues with the DS1307. I tried to load a I2C scanner and both PCF8574 are seeing (0x22H, 0x24H) but the DS1307 doesn’t.
 
I have tried to check with my logic analyzer that the I2C signal is arriving to the DS1307 trough the MOSFET transistors and signal is Ok but there is no answer while scanning the I2C bus nor trying to read it.
 
Any ideas what could be happening?

  Server 16 internal Relays
Posted by: sebagarayco - 08-12-2024, 12:43 PM - Forum: KinCony Server-Mini / Server-16 Raspberry Pi4 relay module - Replies (1)

Hi Kincony,

I know for sure that my load will be below 7 AMPS per channel. Same happens for a H32B-Pro that I have.

Do I need anyway KC868-E16v2 ? 
It would be better not to use internal 7 amp relays of the Server 16 / H32B-Pro?

Please elaborate so I can size my distribution box properly.

Thanks

  Switch names don't get saved
Posted by: BaconRanch - 08-10-2024, 11:11 PM - Forum: KinCony Server-Mini / Server-16 Raspberry Pi4 relay module - Replies (4)

Good Day,

I have just set up Kincony server16 and have it up and running and all entities exposed with Home Assistant.  I have spent lots of time customising with new entities names and arrangement that makes sense for my use but every time I reboot  the work is lost and I have default names of output_1, output_2, etc. etc.... and I have no way to know which switch is required.  Why are my custom names not being saved?  This unit is really no use to me if it defaults every time and wastes my time and is dangerous to use without proper switch labels.

Im using a MacBook but I've tried it on a windows laptop with the sane outcome. Im not too sure if I'm missing something but I've used esphome on multiple boards previously with no issues.

  Compatibility with RF433 Superheterodyne Module?
Posted by: mandy - 08-08-2024, 07:42 PM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (3)

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some advice on the KC868-A16 board. I want to know if it is compatible with a 433 MHz Superheterodyne RF module. Previously, I had issues with signal range using common 433 MHz RF modules, so I bought the Superheterodyne module to test it. However, when I tried using it with a 433 MHz alarm sensor, it didn’t detect the signal when I attempted to learn it using the KCS firmware.
I’m fairly new to this and just started experimenting with this board today. I also haven’t soldered the antenna to the RF module yet, but I was testing the sensor right next to the module.
Has anyone had experience with this setup or could offer any insights?
Thanks in advance!

  Problem With Ethernet Port
Posted by: rferreras - 08-06-2024, 11:51 PM - Forum: KC868-A32/A32 Pro - Replies (3)

I have the following Arduino code and I can not get my A32 Pro to connect to the network and take IP, in the port if I see that there is connection but I can not get it to take an IP address from the DHCP of my network.

Code:
#ifndef ETH_PHY_TYPE
#define ETH_PHY_TYPE  ETH_PHY_LAN8720
#define ETH_PHY_ADDR  0
#define ETH_PHY_MDC   23
#define ETH_PHY_MDIO  18
#define ETH_PHY_POWER -1
#define ETH_CLK_MODE  ETH_CLOCK_GPIO0_IN
#endif

#include <ETH.h>
#include "Arduino.h"
#include "PCF8574.h"
#include <Wire.h>
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <PubSubClient.h>
#include <ArduinoJson.h>
#include "esp_system.h"
#include "esp_task_wdt.h"

EthernetClient ethClient;
PubSubClient client(ethClient);

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(115200);
 
  ETH.begin();

  while (Ethernet.localIP() == INADDR_NONE) {
    Serial.println("Esperando dirección IP...");
    delay(1000);  // Esperar 1 segundo antes de verificar nuevamente
  }
 
  while (ETH.localIP() == INADDR_NONE) {
    Serial.println("Esperando dirección IP...");
    delay(1000);  // Esperar 1 segundo antes de verificar nuevamente
  }

  while (!ETH.linkUp()) {
    Serial.print(".");
    delay(1000);
  }

  Serial.println("");
  Serial.println("Ethernet conectado");
}
