I'm thrilled to be posting here for the first time and to be embarking on my journey into automation. It's truly gratifying to handle these tasks independently. I've chosen Kincony as my solution.
Here's my setup:
KC868 Server with Raspberry Pi (RP) and Home Assistant.
KC868-A64
KC868-AIO
KC868-E16 (x5)
I plan to utilize the KC868-A64 for connecting 64 wall switches via Cat 6 LAN cables to Digital Inputs. On the output side, it will link to KC868-E16 units (x4) to manage the home lighting. I'll be powering it using a 12V 2A power supply. Will this be sufficient? Also, what type of cable is recommended to connect Digital Outputs to KC868-E16? Additionally, what is the purpose of ITC Expand?
KC868-AIO is intended for controlling 16 LED strips via 0-10V. Digital Outputs will connect to KC868-E16 for roller shutter control, while Digital Inputs will interface with wall switches for shutter and LED control, including contacts.
Regarding IFTTT configuration, is there a method to set up a double click action on a wall switch connected to KC868-A64 that can turn off all Digital Outputs in both KC868-A64 and some KC868-AIO?
For KC868-AIO, I'm interested in temperature and possibly humidity sensing. Which sensors should I purchase, and what's the maximum cable length it can accommodate? Also, which sensor types are compatible with KC868-AIO?
The KC868 Server is earmarked for interfacing with the electric meter via Modbus RTU and controlling various elements such as sprinklers and garage operations via 12V.
I appreciate any insights and guidance you can offer, especially if there's a roofing company in Northern Virginia that can assist with specific setup aspects. Thank you in advance!
