Information IR Receiver Compatibility with KC868-A6 and KC868-A16
Posted by: BHD-13 - 11-28-2024, 12:05 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (1)

Hi Admin,
I came across your lesson about ''How to decode IR signal by ESPHome'' which i found extremely helpful and straightforward.
https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1220

I want to know whether it is possible to use an IR receiver like the VS1838B on the KC868-A6 or the KC868-16 and if possible, how to wire it.

  Suitable CT clamps for M30
Posted by: sumnerboy - 11-27-2024, 08:33 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (23)

Hi,

I am very interested in getting an M30 for monitoring the various circuits in my home. Some circuits only draw a 1-2A, some 8-10A, some 20-24A.

Can you please provide a list of suitable CT clamps that will work with the M30 for a various range of currents?

Ideally model numbers and specifications so we can source them directly if required.

Many thanks,
Ben

  KC868-A4S for heating controll
Posted by: tadam - 11-27-2024, 01:05 PM - Forum: KC868-A4S - Replies (9)

Hello there,

I am looking for confirmation before purchase that I can use this board as I plannig to. Smile
So my plan is to use this board for central heating management. I attached a picture how does the setup looks so far.
I will use Home assistant and esphome.
As you can see I have 
- 4 24V AC valve.
- 5 temperature sensor (ds18B20)
- analog pressure sensor (SEN0257)
- leak sensor (just a basic contact sensor)
- opentherm adapter (this one)
- for network connection I will use ethernet

Do I need an additonal power supply (9-24V DC) to power my board? Or it can be power from 5V?

4x 24V AC valve: This is easy, They can go to the 4 relay. I think I will use the normaly closed terminals, in case of a board issue, the heating should not be affected. There is a separate 24V AC power supply, which only responsible for powering these valves.

5 temperature sensor (ds18B20): As far as I know these sensors has uniq id and can use the same pin, with one wire protocol. I can use the 3.3V output and ground from the board, and GPIO01 for the onewire.

analog pressure sensor (SEN0257): This sensor needs 5V can I get 5V out of this board? The output of this sensor is analog, so I can use AI1 for that.

leak sensor: This is just a digital sensor this is trivial too, it can go DI1 and ground.

opentherm adapter: This board need 3.3V, this I can get from the board. But also needs 2 free IO. Is there an IO I can repurpose in this case? There is only one free "bare" gpio left which is this case GPIO2. All other looks like has a special purpose.

I am really excited for this project and looking forward for responses. Thanks in advance.

  Kincony Server 16 User Manual

Is there a detailed user manual available for the Kincony Server 16 that includes the I/O port numbers or addresses? I need this information to utilize the device's pins and ports more efficiently for my application.

  kcs firmware system source code
Posted by: davidbvega - 11-26-2024, 11:25 AM - Forum: Development - Replies (1)

Good morning!

I wanted to know if you have available the firmware source code that you provide for the KC868-A8-V1.6 board.

I want to extend functionalities needed for my project, but if it is possible, starting from your base.

Best regards!
