RE: Unresponsive KC868-A16 - NewONE - 01-21-2024

Good day sir,

i have tested the KCS firwmware for myA16 and the ethernet port was ok, i tested the output, but as soon as i uploaded the ESPHOME yaml file on my homeassistant the ETHERNET port turns OFF or it becomes disabled. i dont know why.

Can you check the pictures below, check if the CODE for the LAN Ethernet port is correct? I used the same code for the LAN before and it works.. Maybe there is a correct CODE for LAN Ethernet port.

Please check and advise sir.

Thank you

I bought new board KC868-A16 in version 1.6 and i want install KCS SOFTWARE V2.2.2 in this board according online guide, but I have the following errors.
Please help me.


RE: Unresponsive KC868-A16 - admin - 03-04-2024

before you download firmware, you should remove RF433MHz receiver module from your A16 PCB. can you take a photo of your working A16 PCB.


RE: Unresponsive KC868-A16 - benpot1992 - 03-07-2024

Now it's OK, thank you.
What's the easiest way to connect it with a home assistant?


RE: Unresponsive KC868-A16 - admin - 03-07-2024

if you want A16 integrate to home assistant, use by ESPHome is easiest.
