  Read 12V battery charge
Posted by: darsh - 11-25-2024, 11:03 AM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (7)

Hello,
I am powering the board with a solar panel connected to a charge controller and a 12V battery. I have installed the ESPHome system on the board connected to Home Assistant, and it is working perfectly.

I would like to read the battery charge level using the analog sensor A1, but I know that this sensor reads a maximum of 5V, so the 12V from the battery (13V when fully charged) needs to be reduced. For this, I tried using a voltage divider circuit with two resistors, one 200KOhm and one 100KOhm. I connected the GND and A1 terminals of the analog sensors across the 100KOhm resistor, with the GND terminal going to the negative terminal of the battery.

+12V (Battery)
      |
      |
    [R1]  200kOhm
      |
      +------ A1
      |
    [R2]  100kOhm
      |
      |
    GND (Battery -)

The configuration in ESPHome is:

Code:
sensor:
  - platform: adc
    pin: 36
    name: 'Battery Charge - Voltage'
    id: battery_charge_voltage
    accuracy_decimals: 5
    device_class: "voltage"
    state_class: "measurement"
    unit_of_measurement: "V"
    update_interval: 5s
    filters:
    - multiply: 24.6

This configuration gives me readings of values below 0, which I had to multiply by 24.6 to get battery voltage values close to what I read using a voltmeter connected to the battery terminals.

Additionally, the values read are not stable, while the voltmeter provides a rather stable value.

Can you tell me if I am making any mistakes in the configuration or in the circuit? Is there a simpler way to perform this reading?

Thank you.

Darsh

  M16 Incorrect current reading
Posted by: salvolivigni - 11-23-2024, 05:06 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (1)

Hi Admin, I recently purchased the M16 and 13 SCT013 board, I configured everything with esphome, so far everything is ok. But when I go to read the values of the specific probes, comparing them for example with a PZEM 0-16, I have values in watts very far from the real absorption, I also did a comparison with a clamp meter, and unfortunately the M16 probes all read values much higher than reality. For the voltage I solved it by modifying the file #define SENSITIVITY 525.0f, and now the voltage is correct, but unfortunately for the wattage I can't find a solution, can you help me?

  Wired Water Leak Sensor on modul A16
Posted by: Brouk - 11-23-2024, 11:33 AM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (1)

dear admin,

I would like to connect the "Wired Water Leak Sensor" https://shop.kincony.com/products/wired-...282c&_ss=r to the KC868-A16 module and read the flood value in HomeAssistant in ESPHome.

> could you please publish the wiring diagram for the "Wired Water Leak Sensor" connection to A16?
> the sensor is connected to a digital input and is thus used as an active input in ESPHome?

regards

  How use SIM800 on KC868-A2
Posted by: Mihanic - 11-22-2024, 05:59 PM - Forum: KC868-A2 - Replies (1)

I have a SIM800 modem. How can I transfer data via GPRS to my home assistant server (for example MQTT) or the Tuya cloud if I do not have an Ethernet and WiFi connection.
I use firmware 2.2.7 - there you can only SIM7600

  A8S v2. Incorrect wiring of toggle switches module
Posted by: Denis - 11-20-2024, 02:54 PM - Forum: KC868-A8S - Replies (1)

On the A8S v2 controller and A8S-EXT-V1.0 expansion module, toggle switch S1 (and LED) corresponds to relay8, toggle switch S2 corresponds to relay7, etc.
Is this a known bug and will it be fixed?
