  Questions on CO16
Posted by: philj77 - 09-13-2026, 09:38 AM - Forum: CO16 - Replies (3)

Hi,

I have several questions on CO16 that I would like to use to replace my alarm system :-)

1/ Are there free GPIO that can be accessed (I need to add Wiegand input)
2/ Is there a socket to expand I2C bus ? 
3/ Which GPIO are used for KNX ? 
4/ With ESPHome can we send KNX messages from CO16
5/ Regarding the SIM7600E expansion, what is the wiring (I already have such a module and I would like to know if it will be compatible) 
6/ Any idea on how to generate sound for a remote loundspeaker (the one that tells alarm in service / door left open / ....) ?
7/ Is there any electronic between GPIO38/39 and RS485 socket ?

Regards
Philippe

  RED DIP switch function

In reality, this corresponds to several low-level hardware control signals of the CM5.

  Ceiling fan control not working with KC868-AGv3
Posted by: mattst88 - 09-12-2026, 03:23 PM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (11)

Hello,

I received a KC868-AGv3 and installed KCS_AGV3_V3.27.2 on it. I'm struggling to get it to work with my ceiling fans (brand / model is CARRO USA Osborn).

I can successfully listen and capture signals from the fan's remote, but transmitting them from the KC868-AGv3 doesn't work with the fan. I tried settings of 10, 30, and 100 for the "Adjust Repeat Count" option, without success.

How can I debug this further?

  Pi5R8 Bundle B (CM5 Lite) Will Not Boot from microSD
Posted by: jasoncamp - 09-11-2026, 09:11 PM - Forum: Pi5R8 - Replies (5)

I recently purchased a KinCony Pi5R8 Bundle B with the CM5004000 (CM5 4GB Lite), heatsink, and fan.

I am unable to get the CM5 to boot from microSD. I am using a SanDisk High Endurance 128GB microSD card and wrote Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) using Raspberry Pi Imager 2.0.11.1. The write and verification both complete successfully.

With the microSD installed and 12V/3A power applied:

  • Red power LED remains on.
  • RUN/status LEDs illuminate briefly at startup and then turn off.
  • Fan starts.
  • No HDMI output.
  • No Ethernet link/activity lights.
  • Device does not appear on the network.
I have rewritten and verified the microSD image multiple times with the same result. The CM5 is the Lite version without eMMC, so my understanding is that booting Raspberry Pi OS from the Pi5R8 microSD slot is the correct procedure.

I also installed rpiboot on Windows and connected the Pi5R8 USB-C port to the PC. rpiboot remains at “Waiting for BCM2835/6/7/2711/2712…” and does not detect the CM5.
The five DIP switches are still in their factory positions; I have not changed them.

Is there a jumper, DIP-switch setting, or other configuration required for the Pi5R8 with a CM5 Lite to boot from microSD? If not, what would you recommend checking next?
