Question/doubts:
- COMPONENTS: Would https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/S...67057.html satisfy all the requirements? Am I missing components??
--> answer:
"Distribution Box" control ON/OFF devices.
- Control Temparature sensors : how many channel of sensors? you can chose any KC868-A series board for sensor, just have GPIOs.
- Control TV: chose KinCony AG Pro controller, send IR signal to control your TV or aid conditoner.
- Control Garden Irrigation : use by KC868-H32B Pro relay controller.
- Doors sensors: one KC868-H32B Pro have 6 channel digital input port, it can use for door sensors.
- Dimming lights (not all, just in base floor) : use KC868-D16 16 channel dimmer controller.
- CABLING: Not sure how to proceed with cabling and best practices. Should I cable both floors to Distribution box? Should I divide electric cabling from ethernet/RS485 in different pipes? Would be good to concentrate cabling in second floor and then connect to first floor (Distribution Box)
--> answer:
two soltuion:
a. every floor put a Distribution box.
b. make a big Distribution box for two floors.
both can use, it's up to your house structure.
we suggest use ethernet cable, not need to use RS485.
- SWITCHES: If using smart wall switches, how can I still use traditional switching in case KC868 goes down?
--> answer:
NOT use smart wall switch, use push button traditional switch panel , their cable need connect to KC868-AK board. if switch broen, easy find a new one replace. if KinCony smart controller broken, also have manual control button way with H32B Pro's buttons or AC contcator's button.
- GARDEN IRRIGATION: How to control this?
--> answer:
use KC868-H32B Pro relay controller is ok, usually control pump for ON/OFF.
