  How to send temperature sensor data via custom protocol
Posted by: sebfromgermany - 06-04-2025, 06:08 AM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (1)

Hello.
I am trying to send the current temperature of a sensor to an external server. In order to do that, I set up a custom HTTP POST protocol with an URL to a PHP webpage which processes the received data.
Unfortunately I am lacking of information of how to send values via HTTP POST. There is a good documententation about how to request data from the board, but I was not able to find information about sending data from the board to an external URL.
It would be great if you could help me.
Kind regards,
Seb

  Temperature is not send to Loxone
Posted by: kotrmelec - 06-03-2025, 10:39 AM - Forum: T16M - Replies (3)

Hello, over the weekend, I got the T16M module up and running, and I was able to establish communication with my second-generation Loxone miniserver without any problems. Using UDP, I am able to read the on/off states of the DO, etc.
The only thing that isn't working, and I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, is reading the temperature status. I have a standard DS18B20 1-wire temperature sensor connected to the T16M board, I set the sensor in the board configuration and I can see the temperature(channel 1). Everything works without any problems. However, after setting the virtual input in Loxone, nothing happens. I monitored the UDP monitor in Loxone and no UDP command carrying temperature information reaches Loxone. Only commands for reading/controlling DI and DO. Is this a firmware error? Or does something else need to be set/enabled in the configuration for the temperature to be sent to Loxone?

Just to note, I am using the latest version of KCS3 firmware available right now.

Thank you in advance for your help.

  KC868-AG and RF projector screen
Posted by: seatrope - 06-01-2025, 10:31 PM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (1)

Hi Kincony!

I have been very pleased with the KC868-AG in Home Assistant so far. It's very strong and reliable for IR signals especially when I know the protocol like RC5, or NEC.

I have been struggling to get it working with my projector screen. The projector screen has RF, IR and 12V trigger, I would like to avoid having to wire the 12V trigger. We have generally used the RF 433Mhz as this is very reliable from the handheld controller, but I have tried multiple times to capture the RF signal using either RAW or Pronto format in esphome, and it never works when I send it.

By chance, can you figure out what the native protocol format is from these photos of the remote circuit board?
The manual is here, and you can tell the model also:  https://brochures.onlinebiz.com.au/broch...manual.pdf

I have attached some pictures of the remotes, the control box and the circuit boards for both RF and IR remotes.

I am hoping to get it working with RF 433Mhz with the KC868-AG. Any tips?

Thank you!

Hi
I have KC868-H8B v2.2
I tried to set up my Poole and Deck for the summer again but I can’t connect with the app(Kbox). I checked and see that the board is connected to the Wi-Fi. 
I have set the IP address that is shown on the router and the port is 5555. But it does not react to the app. 
How can I get this board working again?

Lightbulb Question: Can I Get kWh Values with 0.01 Resolution Instead of 1 kWh?
Posted by: rvs - 05-31-2025, 09:51 AM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (1)

Hello everyone,
I’m using a Kincony M30 to monitor individual group energy consumption, but I’ve noticed that the kWh readings are reported in 1 kWh increments. 
Is there a way to configure the M30 (or its firmware) so that it reports energy in 0.01 kWh steps instead of whole kWh? 

Any guidance or configuration tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

  KC868 A16 and ESP32 Ulp
Posted by: vovo500 - 05-31-2025, 07:25 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (1)

Hi,

I am developing a 256 Channel Pulse counter (Even if I need only 20 channels) for the A16 board.
The power consumption should be minimized for the device.

For pulse counting, the device must be able to read I/O ports using I2C.

Currently, this is not possible in an ULP program, because it requires one of the following port combinations for  I2C (See also: esp32-ulp-i2c):

IIC_SDA(SDA) -> GPIO13 (or GPIO11)
IIC_SDL(SCL) -> GPIO02 (or GPIO4)

The board has the following combination:

IIC_SDA -> GPIO04
IIC_SDL -> GPIO05

None of the connections are possible with the current version of the A16 board.

Additionally, it would be great to be able to switch of all peripheral functionality in an (ulp-) program.
Currently, it's not possible to disable e.g. ethernet and USB...
The pulse counter needs ethernet only every 15 minutes for a few milliseconds (MQTT).
I2C is needed only every 20ms.
Configuration will happen via web server. It will happen only after restart or after pressing a button.

Are there other boards which have similar functionality, but are usable for ulp i2c?

Thank you
