KC868-A32 wiring - ragaimeena - 09-06-2024

Hi 
I am interested in KC868-A32 to use as a central module with some assistant

I am trying to:
1-control multiple 24V DC LEDs
2-Control an irrigation system
3-connect door/window sensors, motion sensors and other sensors

questions:

1- can this be achieved with one A32 board?
2- wiring the LED (24V DC) to the relay output, I need help with. I will use Mean Well 24V DIN rail mounted power source for the LEDs
3- can I run the irrigation system on the same board? can you give me some direction on this if possible

I will be sing ESPhome
Thank you

1. it's OK, just you need calculate the relay channel number you wanted.
2. relay control DC24V load is ok.
3. i don't know your "irrigation " details. if only use for ON/OFF switch, it's ok.

thank you for your response

the irrigation is similar to this

https://community.home-assistant.io/t/diy-8-station-irrigation-based-on-esphome-on-kc868-a8-relay-board/459599

 but want everything to be done with A32  ( use 8 relays for the irrigation 1-8/// use 24 relays for LED light)
is that OK
do you have any comment on this YAML in the link?

I want to use relays 1-8 for irrigation
Relays 9-32 for LED lights

Do you have any comment on the YAML in this example?
Ultimate goal is to have everything run with one board

Also can A-64 be used or the relays will not be appropriate since they are MOSFET?
Thank you

thank you. I am trying to post a reply but not allowing mr

I am trying to use an example for irrigation I found on home assistant forum (tried to paste the link but not allowed)
I want relay 1-8 to control the irrigation
relay 9-32 to control LEDs

can I also use A-64 or the relay MSFET will not be enough?
Thank you

here is yaml file for KC868-A8: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2367
if use KC868-A64, you can add KC868-E16v2 extend relay module.
