Hello Kincony,

Do you have a working version of firmware download tool for Windows 11?

I'm getting an error message when I click on "Open Serial Port" in  "KC868 Controller Bootloader.exe" GUI on Windows 11.

Hello,
I am trying to use your librairy but seem to always have the same compilation error, using the exemple or my own code. Maybe you have an idea of what it can be please?
(of course I have a license for the product, hc868-a6, but almost sure it's not related)

I've just bought the KC868-A6 and after powering it with 12V, I do see a red led just near the 12V intput, so has power, but I don't get any wifi to start. I was expecting the board in AP mode. (I was assuyming that's the way to start).

I tried to push S1 & S2 buttons ofr > 10 secs, but the same.

Is the board I've got faulty? What can I so?

Hello,

do you have the exact dimensions (H x h x l) for the KC868-E16 V2 board? I'm especially interested in knowing how much it protrudes towards the front - the minimum distance from the DIN rail that I need to have available.

Thank you!

Good evening, 
I am using Kincony kc868-atc v1 board, to connect my modbus device, I want to interface it with tuya application.
I want to build my own interface, but all the tutorials uses a ready interface. the other tutorials suggest burning the authorization to an ESP module so it can interface with tuya platform, but in our case we have the CBU-IPEX module, how can I build an interface on tuya, does it require licensing?

Also, does the  kincony esp32 bin file firmware interfere with the arduino file? 

thank you

Hi

please guide me in the right direction

i bought a kc868-A8  and  i want to add  RFID READER ;  my code working in normal ESP32 NODEMCU IS

I've installed a KC868-a16 and used the 12v powersupply delivered by Kincony. For output's I use a seperate 24v power supply. The board is flashed by using ESPHOME+HomeAssistant.

5 inputs+outputs are in use. 

The problem occurs when using the default code (by Kincony) and when I use a modified version. 

The problem:
- When output 1,2,3,4 switched on, the corresponding LED's switch on and my relays switch on. 
- When switching output 5 on, all LED's switch off, except5. all relays stay on, but cannot be controlled by switching off the output (1,2,3,4).

the same issue occurs when I switch 1,2,4,5 on. Then output 3 starts the problem. 

my thoughts: 
- I2C adresses seem to be ok (v1.6 board)
- no library installed

Please let me know

Hi everyone

I am diving into home automation for the first time and just got my hands on some Kincony devices. I'm excited to start building my smart home with ESPHome and Home Assistant but could use some guidance.

I've followed the basic setup instructions but I'm hitting a few roadblocks. I'd appreciate any tips on:-

• Flashing Firmware: What's the best way to install ESPHome firmware on Kincony devices? Are there specific settings I should know about?
  
• Configuration Files: Can anyone share example YAML configuration files for common Kincony devices? I need help understanding how to set up sensors, switches, etc.
  
• Home Assistant Integration: How do I smoothly integrate my flashed and configured devices into Home Assistant? Any tips for a reliable connection?
  
• Troubleshooting: What are common issues to watch out for during setup?
  

Hello guys! :)

I am excited to start integrating them with ESPHome and Home Assistant but I am finding the initial setup a bit challenging.

I have gone through the basic installation guides but I could use some help with the following:-

• What are the best practices for flashing ESPHome firmware onto Kincony devices? Are there any specific settings or configurations I should be aware of?
  
• Could anyone share sample YAML configuration files for common Kincony devices? I am looking for examples to better understand how to define sensors, switches and other components.
  
• Once the devices are flashed and configured, what's the best way to integrate them into Home Assistant? Are there any tips for ensuring a smooth connection and reliable performance?
  
• Any advice on common issues or pitfalls to avoid during this setup process?
  

Hello,
I used the KC868-A2 AT debug code to test the connection with the SIM7600E-L1C module. However, I did not get any response... The serial monitor keeps showing " Initializing... " only. Code as below. I would appreciate it if you could help solve this issue.

Thank you
