Photo no access to kcs
Posted by: philippe - 12-12-2024, 10:43 AM - Forum: KC868-A8 - Replies (5)

Hi,
I received a new A8 board, downloaded KCS with  success, off/on the board. But I cant see the board on my net. Even with your tool udp scan. The board is on the same switch than my PC.
Udp scan can see my two other kincony board. I tried both kcs V2, the V1..no luck.

No problem with Tasmota, I have a wifi access to the board (but not via wire).


I remember , installing them last year was not esay for me, spending too much time.
I have 110 ish IP address on my Lan, many vendors, so far switches from shelly ,dingtian.
I added kincony for the 1wire support. But man, am I stupid for having so much problem with the K boards boards or is my english broken? I hope so and that you will point me to the solution.
Would be so easy for me, to have new board coming with kcs de facto.

Also, I tried to integarte it on HA. I thought it would be easy like the videos show : just copy and paste! . No way, I am fighting with the yaml syntax . I know I should learn the yaml syntax. But you could simplify my job by posting yaml files not text ( or it is hidden on the website?) . Yes I am dumb with yaml. But for newbies like me, we would be more enclined to buy kincony stuff.

Question:
When kcs starts for the first time, is dhcp activated? on wired lan first , right?


I posted my request by email, as you suggest when I contacted via ali. You reply that I should go to the forum. So please for new buyers, on ali , suggest to contact you on the forum.

Thanks

  connecting the 868-A6 to the Raspberry via a cable
Posted by: Michal.T - 12-12-2024, 09:24 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (1)

What are the options for connecting an A6 to a Raspberry Pi 5 with a cable, followed by integration with Home Assistant?

  433MHz sender and recievers
Posted by: Fleetz - 12-11-2024, 09:30 PM - Forum: KC868-A4 - Replies (1)

I already have these 433MHz sender and reciever modules are these suitable for the KC-868-A4?

Or are the sender and recievers that Kincony sell designed specifically to work only on the KC-868-A4 board?

  B16M Digital Input
Posted by: Dutchkiwi - 12-11-2024, 09:16 PM - Forum: Schematic and diagram - Replies (1)

I'm using a B16M to control a home automation project. It's using a 24V power supply and the B16M is switching a set of 24V relays that switch the 230V mains.
I can switch the relays via Home Assistant and via the ESPHome dashboard but I can't switch the relays using the digital inputs. If I ground a digital input pin I can see the state change on the Home Assistant and ESPHome dashboads but the relay dose not operate.
I am using the B16M ESPHome yaml for home assistant code from the forum which I haven't changed.
Regards

  ModBus RequesMapping Sensors (T1, T2) to ADC Channels on KC868-A6
Posted by: ka.mobo - 12-11-2024, 07:03 AM - Forum: Development - Replies (3)

Hello Admin

I am currently working with ModBus RS-485 the KC868 series board (specifically the KC868-A6) and would like to understand how analog sensors, such as T1, T2, or other analog inputs, are mapped to the ADC channels in the hardware configuration. (I am using the Firmware KCS_KC868_A6_V2.2.5)
Could you please provide:

  1. Hardware documentation that specifies the connection of sensors (T1, T2, etc.) to the ADC channel register addresses.
  2. Any relevant details or examples for configuring and reading sensor data using Modbus function code 03.

This information would greatly assist in correctly interpreting sensor data from the board.

  Which parts to order for Loxone Project?
Posted by: killeriq - 12-10-2024, 11:29 PM - Forum: KinCony integrate with Loxone home automation - Replies (13)

Hi,

just recently found about your Boards and luckily there is also some Loxone integration options available right from the producer. Great!

I would like to double check which parts / boards should I order to integrate with Loxone.
Loxone (master) <-> Kincony boads (Slave)

Eventually MQTT,UDP or Tasmota system would be also fine to integrate with Loxone (as i have already few devices working)

Here is the list what I would like to have:

KC868-E16S

  1. Preferably via LAN Cable (due to stability and latency)
  2. 12-16x Relays to operate 230v devices. Relays should be easily replaceable as on KC-868-E16 boards
  3. few DI for Digital Buttons, Impulse meter / Power consumption
    KC868-E16S (not sure if 1-wire is there, but I see some I2C Extender on board
  4. 1-wire for Temperature / Humidity sensor
  5. I2C support for SHT31 sensors or SCD30 (temp/hum/co2)
    Probably some additional board to get AO ports
  6. 2-3x AO 0-10v controller for FANs


Some of those features should be possible via
KC868-E16S
or KC868-E16T (not sure what is the difference, + Tuya support feature?)
In case there is newer / more suitable board, please let me know


Thanks!

Hi 

Very new to all of this.

I have 2 diesel tank level sensors in ohms can this be configured to kcs software as I have looked and I believe they are in volts?

  Floating inputs are changing state
Posted by: oyvind@kinsey.no - 12-10-2024, 03:57 PM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (11)

I have a v1.6 board that is currently not connected to anything; it is powered with a quality mean well 12v power supply. 

The integration into home assistant is made using your example yaml for Esp home (included).

The problem is some of the inputs will randomly toggle on and off.. From my reading, the PCF8574P has an internal weak pull-up, so it should not read a signal unless there's sufficient input on the optocoupler, which would require pulling the input down to ground.


Any ideas what could be causing this?
