Hi All,

Is there a way to use the analog inputs to control the relays, without a software solution behind?
It is working fine with Home Assistant, but for example a centralized light control it would be essential to fallback electronics only if a network outage occurs or sever is unavailable.

Thanks!

you can download KCS firmware, make IFTTT command , let analog value to control relay output. here is KCS online guide: https://www.kincony.com/esp32-kcsv2-firmware.html
then you can integrate A16S board to home assistant by MQTT, so that KCS and home assistant can work at the same time.

Thank you very much, I will check it. Or maybe code it in ESPHome like this:
Do you have any consideration?


binary_sensor:
  - platform: gpio
    name: "a16s-input1"
    pin:
      pcf8574: pcf8574_hub_in_1
      number: 0
      mode: INPUT
      inverted: true
    on_press:
      - switch.toggle: relay01

switch:
  - platform: gpio
    name: "a16s-output1"
    pin:
      pcf8574: pcf8574_hub_out_1
      number: 0
      mode: OUTPUT
      inverted: true
    id: relay01


Need to add for every channel, with a counter unique relay ID.

yes, i suggest you only use ESPHome is enough, not need to use KCS.

Can the Digital inputs be used for things other than just binary sensors?

Hi, everytime I try to upload ESPHOME in the A16S board it shows an error while connecting through serial port. I've attached the screenshot here. Please advise. 
Also if I try to connect through LAN connections it requires OTA password. Could you please provide that too.?
