USE PCF8574 FOR ESP32 INPUT PORTS - GVDC - 02-01-2023

USE PCF8574 IIC EXTEND GPIO FOR ESP32 INPUT PORTS
Hello, 

I am very new working with Kincony 868 A8

I have downloaded the instructions from lesson 20 for installing input ports and copied them in e new sketch.
 
After uploading I see that all 8 Inports give "pressed key", continiously. Making contact between ground and 1 port (1 to 8) give no change. 
The serial monitor stays announcing all ports "pressed key".
 
Type : Kincony 868 A8 V1.5
Thanks
What is wrong?

you can use this arduino demo code for PCF8574 INPUT function test: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1609
here are all source code for KC868-A8: https://www.kincony.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?fid=23 see this zone is correct.

Hello, it was that what I have done first time. I installed and loaded up 8574-DI but the result is that all 8 buttons stays continiously on "pressed button"


RE: USE PCF8574 FOR ESP32 INPUT PORTS - admin - 02-02-2023

do you have defined IIC pins in arduino config file. you'd better upload screen error image.


RE: USE PCF8574 FOR ESP32 INPUT PORTS - GVDC - 02-02-2023

Hello, there is no error message. The screen shows every 0,3 sec for all 8 relais :"Key 1...8 pressed". You can only stop the text by switching out the power.

Hello, I have tried again. The serial monitor writes :
Init pcf8574...OK
KEY1 PRESSED
KEY2 PRESSED.....
KEY8 PRESSED
KEY2 PRESSED
KEY2 PRESSED..... continiously


IC adress in sketch :
PCF8574 pcf8574(0x22,4,5)
I made a copy of the download 8574-DI...

post your code, i will test on your code by KC868-A8.

Hello,

As nobody finds the reason and as you can see that the result is as 2 is closed without a connection between ground and input 2 there must be a electrical short circuit in the Kincony A8!

It is the second failure of a Kincony A8 on two peaces.

Kind regards

this code is work fine, but you have changed, so your board not work well.

.zip   8574-DI.zip (Size: 650 bytes / Downloads: 171)
NOT use " PCF8574 pcf8574(0x22,4,5); "    our code is "PCF8574 pcf8574(0x22);"
I have told you need set pin define in your arduino config file:
we use NodeMcu-32S board, so do as these photos will be work fine:
   
   
   


RE: USE PCF8574 FOR ESP32 INPUT PORTS - GVDC - 03-08-2023

Hello,

thanks for your help, but the same result as before. Key 2 is always closed.

An other question : instead of KC868 A8 do there exist also one with 10 or 12 relais? Or can you connect 2 more relays on the KC868 A8?

Kind regards.
