Question A2V3 - Schematic
Posted by: Diminuk - 09-17-2025, 11:38 AM - Forum: Schematic & diagram & Dimensions of KinCony PCB layout CAD file - Replies (1)

Hey!

I've been looking for the A2V3 board schematic, but could'nt find it on the forum or on the kincony webpage.
Is it publicly accessible? If so, could someone provide it for me?

Thanks!

  KC868-A8: Read voltage on Analog Input A1 to A4 not working?
Posted by: svdstra - 09-17-2025, 09:26 AM - Forum: Development - Replies (1)

Since the Inputs A1 to A4 have an internal pull up resistor the analog voltage should read 3V when the input is open. For some reason I am unable to read the voltage of a open input and it returns 0.075V.

Am I correct that the reading should read around 3V because of the internal Pull-up resistor?

The input config is:

sensor:
  - platform: adc
    pin: GPIO14
    name: "Analog Input A1"
    update_interval: 5s

What am I doing wrong?

  1-wire GPIOs
Posted by: JuDie07 - 09-16-2025, 08:08 AM - Forum: KC868-A8v3 - Replies (1)

KC868A8-V3 under ESPHome 2025.8.4

Hello,
Question: Can the 1-wire GPIOs be connected to the (with pull-up resistance on PCB):
S1:GPIO40
S2:GPIO13
S3:GPIO48
S4:GPIO14

Can other sensors be connected that do not require a pull-up resistor?
For example one:
- platform: ledc
  id: solar_pum_speed
  pin: GPIO40
  inverted: false

  A32Pro Firmware Update Fail
Posted by: keithc - 09-15-2025, 07:36 PM - Forum: "KCS" v3 firmware - Replies (7)

I'm unable to update firmware on my A32Pro.  

The flash downloader works fine, ESP32S3, develop, USB.  Port COM3 good.  Start.  Green bar grows, but finishes at 40% (between STOP and ERASE).

Tried holding DL button and turn on device.  No change.

Device now appears to be locked.  No LCD display, no network connection, no Wifi.

How do I restore to factory and or hard reset?

  trying to flash the kc868 A16
Posted by: wdiechmann - 09-15-2025, 09:24 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (3)

I am literally in kindergarten  
Sad
I finally got som help from a friend to flash the KC868 A16 with v2.2 firmware (version number major 2 but the .2 i am not so sure about). That left me with the A16 responding on HTTP - so I can see settings, network, and stuff - and I have both an ethernet connection and a WiFi connection working (the A16 responding to GET requests on both IP Addresses). I am macOS (M4) user and I run most everything in Docker containers on a Synology NAS, so I had to ask for help to upgrade the firmware from PC.

I have used the yaml I found in this forum - https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1772 - with changes to network to match my situation.

But when I try to write that configuration yaml - the output is always an error. Whether a 111 or this:

  KinCony AIO Hybrid ALL IN ONE controller rleased
Posted by: admin - 09-15-2025, 01:48 AM - Forum: News - Replies (2)

KinCony AIO Hybrid ESP32 smart controller based on ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U (N16R8) wifi chip. It's ALL IN ONE module. It have 5 manual control switch buttons can turn ON/OFF relay even if system is broken. 5 channel removable OMRON high-quality relay, 2 free GPIOs use for LED strip, such as WS2812B LED strip. 4 channel analog input ports. One SD card using SPI bus. KinCony AIO Hybrid include DS3231 high precision RTC clock chip. OLED display will show wifi and ethernet IP address and Tuya connection state. AIO Hybrid have RS485 port and RF433MHz RF receiver. 4 channel DAC 0-10v output user for dimmer or control motor speed. Tuya APP support work with IR and RF 433MHz devices. IR receiver use for ESP32 and Tuya module. Two IR senders use for ESP32S3 module and Tuya module.
[Image: AIO-Hybrid-1.jpg]
You can define RF and IR buttons to control TV or air conditioner or other IR devices by IR signal.
AIO Hybrid can pair with zigbee3.0 standard protocol products. create IFTTT command for zigbee sensor, so that zigbee sensor automatic send command to relay board or other devices using customize command.
[Image: AIO-Hybrid-2.jpg]
You can write any code by Arduino IDE / MicroPython / ESP-IDF development tool to ESP32 module. We will supply Arduino / ESP-IDF demo code for different samples. Everyone can modify and change the code for your own smart home automation system project. it support use by ESPHome for home assistant or tasmota firmware for smart home automation DIY. AIO Hybrid use KCS v3 firmware, it support home assistant auto discovery function by MQTT, so without write any config code (zero code) for home assistant.

* - The first line is "KINCONY" in a larger font.
* - The second line is "www.kincony.com" in a smaller font.
