KC868-A8 + KCS + iiC + PCF8574 + TUYA - Vall2KAS - 05-28-2024
Dear ALL,
I plan to connect via iic PCF8574 - 4 input - 4 output.
Question: How (or) will the KCS firmware find the PCF8574 and connect these input-outputs to the TUYA? I will buy a TUYA license.

you can use PCF8574 to extend, such as add KinCony DO8 or DI8 i2c extender module, this can use for home assistant by ESPHome, if you want to use Tuya , also can config in yaml file, we have a video tour. But "kcs" firmware not support extend GPIO to use.

I don't work with ESPHome, but I use Tasmota. Can your KC868-A8 work with Tasmota + TUYA?
If the answer is yes, video tours or manual would be fantastic.
