Kincony Server 16 User Manual

[electronics engineer]

Is there a detailed user manual available for the Kincony Server 16 that includes the I/O port numbers or addresses? I need this information to utilize the device's pins and ports more efficiently for my application.

I've checked the GPIO list on this link: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=5418, but I'm unable to determine which GPIO pin corresponds to each digital input. I want to use 16 digital inputs to control 16 relays. So far, I've managed to control relays using 8 GPIO pins, but I'm unsure how to utilize the digital inputs, as the pin information for these inputs is not clearly provided.

because digital input port use by i2c chip MCP23017
binary_sensor:
- platform: mcp23017
i2c_address: 0x20
invert_logic: true
pins:
0 : Button_1
1 : Button_2
2 : Button_3
3 : Button_4
4 : Button_5
5 : Button_6
6 : Button_7
7 : Button_8
8 : Button_9
9 : Button_10
10 : Button_11
11 : Button_12
12 : Button_13
13 : Button_14
14 : Button_15
15 : Button_16


switch:
- platform: mcp23017
i2c_address: 0x22
hw_sync: false
invert_logic: true
pins:
0 : Output_1
1 : Output_2
2 : Output_3
3 : Output_4
4 : Output_5
5 : Output_6
6 : Output_7
7 : Output_8
8 : Output_9
9 : Output_10
10 : Output_11
11 : Output_12
12 : Output_13
13 : Output_14
14 : Output_15
15 : Output_16

Thank you for your response.
Regarding the I2C address 22, the relay module works perfectly. I can read and write using channel address 1 and the data direction registers 0 and 1 without any issues.
However, when I tried the same process with the I2C address 20 for the digital input, I was unable to read or write anything. I even provided 0V (GND) to check for a response, but nothing happened.
Could you please confirm the data direction register address and channel number for the digital input module? If they differ from the relay module, I’d appreciate the correct information so I can utilize the 16 digital inputs effectively.

you can short digital input port with GND to test. take a photo , how you test.
