Kincony A16 - PIR motion sensor

[sonalikaatc@gmail.com]

HI,

I have used the KC686 A16 board for pir motion sensor model HC-SR501,

my config is
- platform: gpio
    name: "a16-input5"
    pin:
      pcf8574: pcf8574_hub_in_1
      number: 4
      mode: INPUT
      inverted: true
    device_class: motion

My output is stuck at clear and no motion is detected.

Please help ..
THANKS

[admin]

do you want output trigger by input PIR sensor?

[sonalikaatc@gmail.com]

Hi admin,
No I Just want input to be detected..
I just want to detect the input (clear and detected) in home assistant.

Thanks

[admin]

you can try these code for KC868-A16:

Hi admin,

I tried above config but it was stuck not working...the motion is not detected..but when I connect the same sensor with ESP 32 mcu board it works.

Do I need to change the Input_IIC_address 0x39
as per your below post?

some of KC868-A16 V1.5 hardware version, PCF8574 address is changed. (if you have seen PCB is V1.5 and have GREEN label, you need to use new address value)
before is :

Relay_IIC_address 0x24
Relay_IIC_address 0x25

Input_IIC_address 0x21
Input_IIC_address 0x22


new is :

Relay_IIC_address 0x3C
Relay_IIC_address 0x3D

Input_IIC_address 0x39
Input_IIC_address 0x3A

   

if you don't know your PCF8574 address, you can use this "I2C scan" arduino IDE source code to scan address, it will print value by serial port.

here is source code:

[admin]

yes, just replace with the new IIC address value. I think it's just IIC address value problem.

[sonalikaatc@gmail.com]

I tried to change the pin address.. but unfortunately the all board is not working.

So I put the old pin address and the board is working but the pir sensor is not working.

What is the problem?

---

Why esp32 nodemcu board is detecting the motion and your board is not working?

[admin]

if you are using ESPHome, after you download firmware, you can see the LOG output, ESPHome will scan IIC bus, check which IIC address have scaned? i think maybe input address is not correct.

[sonalikaatc@gmail.com]

Hi
Please find the below log of esphome..

I think the iic bus is correct.

The 3 wire no -nc-com door sensor is working but pir sensor is not working

[admin]

these are 4 IIC address of your PCF8574 chips:
[19:51:22][I][i2c.arduino:074]: Found i2c device at address 0x21
[19:51:22][I][i2c.arduino:074]: Found i2c device at address 0x22
[19:51:22][I][i2c.arduino:074]: Found i2c device at address 0x24
[19:51:22][I][i2c.arduino:074]: Found i2c device at address 0x25

you can test use a wire short with your digital input and GND, if home assistant input state changed, that mean work well.
if your door sensor is work well, PIR can't work, i think it's no problem with home assistant, that's maybe need set for your PIR, open your PIR sensor, there have a jumper for output signal type, usually will set to NO, maybe yours if NC. I think you can change it.
