433mhz motion sensor
#1
Photo 
Hello,
    I have a KC868-A16 running KCS firmware v2.2.2 and I am thinking of using it to replace my alarm system control board and use a Home Assistant alarm entity...  integrating the KC868 I/O using MQTT was pretty easy However, I also have a few 433mhz motion sensors I'd like to uses and was wondering if it is possible to integrate the 433Mhz Motion sensor into home assistant via the KC868-A16 board?  The KC868 board instantly learn the motion sensor code when triggered, however I am not sure that the 433Mhz events can be passed on to an MQTT or the 433Mhz receiver is ONLY to control the KC868 board?

any help is greatly appreciated

KCS firmware can learn your RF signal. send out by MQTT command, but will not feedback to home assistant when received RF433M signal. here is mqtt document:
https://www.kincony.com/forum/attachment.php?aid=2872    it showed:
8. Send one RF signal have learned
send: {"run_rf":{"value":1}} means: send RF signal that id=1
feedback: {"run_rf1":{"value": success}}

if you want RF sensor trigger other actions, just make AUTOMATION in home assistant. you can config ESPHome to receive RF signal then make AUTOMATION in HA.

Sorry not sure I completely understand... but I don't want to change the firmware on the board.... if I understand this correctly, can I configure the KC-868 IFTTT to transmit on a receive event, and use the kc868 transmit event via MQTT??

if you send MQTT command to A16 board, A16 send RF signal . it's OK.
just send out (learned by KCS) RF signal by MQTT command.
