KC868-AI RS485 & EspHome - pietervanstee - 08-14-2023
Hi,
I'm setting up my KC868-AI in EspHome, but I can't seem to find any information about the integration of RS485 in there.
Please let me know how I can add an additional device (RS485 Ultrasone Wind Snelheid En Richting Sensor Temperatuur Vochtigheid Noise PM2.5 Druk Licht Neerslag Kleine Weerstation)
Thanks
Pieter

if you are using RS485 sensor, you can connect to raspberry pi's USB-RS485 adapter directly. then integrate to home assistant by it's protocol.

Is it possible to use fw KCS KC868-AI as modbus GW? I have a modbus-RTU device and I wanted to connect it via AI RS485 and use it as modbus-tcp/UPD/HTTP requests.

KCS let RS485 modbus work as "SLAVE" mode. if you want work as "MASTER" mode, i think you can config KC868-AI by ESPHome, so that you can do anything.
