I flashed A16 with ESPHome and all sensors are ON, they don't change state when I change the input.
Below is the config

check your esphome log output, what i2c device address scaned. maybe need change i2c address.
new is :
Relay_IIC_address 0x3C
Relay_IIC_address 0x3D
Input_IIC_address 0x39
Input_IIC_address 0x3A

if you short digital input port with GND, whether INPUT state will changed in home assistant.
i want to know whether trigger is correctly, only state is exchanged.
RE: All sensors are ON - truongdq54 - 09-16-2023
After playing sometime, I didn't get it to work correctly. I decided to install MQTT server on home assistant and configure Kincony KCS v2 firmware with MQTT. Now it is working fine. I think using MQTT is better because I can use KCS and home assistant at the same time. KCS doesn't depend on network, so in case the network switch goes down, I can still control my home with physical switches.
RE: All sensors are ON - admin - 09-16-2023
yes, it's right.KCS work in locally.
RE: All sensors are ON - truongdq54 - 09-18-2023
The TCP mode and KBOX app work unreliably. After turning on a few outputs, the KBOX doesn't response to turn on/off switch anymore.
The MQTT via home assistant can still control the A16, so I believe it was the TCP mode is blocked somehow.
After unplug the device, the TCP and KBOX work again. What is the reason?
RE: All sensors are ON - admin - 09-18-2023
we not suggest to use KBOX mobile phone app for KC868-A series board. that mainly use for KC868-H series controller.
what software you want to use? home assistant or tuya app?
