  0-10v in analog input
Posted by: GDN20 - 12-09-2024, 06:03 AM - Forum: KC868-A4 - Replies (3)

please tell me, if I connect a voltage over 10v to the analog input 0-5v, will the port (pin) break? Do I understand correctly that at a voltage above 5v, the value will be 4095?

  AutoSteps staircase lighting controller
Posted by: HansBagieta - 12-08-2024, 04:09 PM - Forum: KC868-AP / ADR - Replies (1)

Hello
I would like to build an AutoSteps staircase lighting controller that allows automatic control of the staircase lighting
in the staircase. Which gives the possibility of obtaining a decorative visual effect consisting of smooth
brightening and extinguishing of the stair lighting.
I would like the device to be configured using four buttons on the front (left/right/confirm/cancel - long press to return to the main screen) of the device and an OLED display, thanks to which I could change the staircase controller settings. It would be nice if the device allowed independent control of LED light sources up to 24 V DC. Do I need anything else besides the KC868-AP ESP32 DC12/24V LED Dimmer to control the brightness of the lights?
Control with a PWM signal:
• LED bulb, LED strip, LED module, LED strips, LED eyes

To be able to connect a signal from motion sensors at the beginning and end of the stairs, which would activate animations controlling the brightness of the connected light sources.

Can I also add an RTC time module?

Is it possible to make such a controller? Smile
Best regards Smile

  A6 Tasmota.bin for quick start
Posted by: korl - 12-07-2024, 08:52 PM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (4)

Hello everyone,

I would like to run Tasmota (newest version) on the A6 (and A16). I ran through the TasmoCompiler, downloaded and flashed provided firmwares by "admin", and used the tutorials with going through the settings (e.g. Setting PCF8574 manually),
I could  not get Tasmota running with all the Hardware in- and outputs (DI, DO, 0-10 V,...)

Could someone just provide the Tasmota bin-file for the A6 and the A16 (for ethernet)?

Best wishes,
korl

  Board KC868_A16 FW 2.2.7 no value sensor MQTT
Posted by: kerdalle - 12-07-2024, 05:09 PM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (4)

Hello,
I updated my card with the latest firmware 2.2.7 and I have a problem with MQTT and sensor 1,2,3. I installed a DS18B20 sensor on sensor 3 It is displayed well and gives the right temperature on the Monitor web page.
However I have the zero value with mqtt:

topic KC868_A16/ECC9FFB5F36C/STATE
value:
{"input1":{"value":false},"input2":{"value":false},"input3":{"value":false},"input4":{"value":false},"input5":{"value":false},"input6":{"value":false},"input7":{"value":false},"input8":{"value":false},"input9":{"value":false},"input10":{"value":false},"input11":{"value":false},"input12":{"value":false},"input13":{"value":false},"input14":{"value":false},"input15":{"value":false},"input16":{"value":false},"output1":{"value":false},"output2":{"value":false},"output3":{"value":false},"output4":{"value":false},"output5":{"value":false},"output6":{"value":false},"output7":{"value":false},"output8":{"value":false},"output9":{"value":false},"output10":{"value":false},"output11":{"value":false},"output12":{"value":false},"output13":{"value":false},"output14":{"value":false},"output15":{"value":false},"output16":{"value":false},"adc1":{"value":0},"adc2":{"value":0},"adc3":{"value":0},"adc4":{"value":0},"sensor1":{"temperature":0.0,"humity":0.0},"sensor2":{"temperature":0.0,"humity":0.0},"sensor3":{"temperature":0.0,"humity":0.0}}


topic KC868_A16/ECC9FFB5F36C/STATE  [sensor3]
value {"temperature":0,"humity":0}
topic KC868_A16/ECC9FFB5F36C/STATE  [sensor3][temperature]
value 0

KC868 monitor web page  sensor chanel 3 show good température 21.2 witch varie according room température.
I think read all post and nothing found abour this problem.
With the software MQTT explorer it's idem 
Inputs, outputs state and order works fine with mqtt.
Where I am wrong?
   
Edit: I have also for test connect ADC chanel 4 on board 3V .  Web page MONITOR board display value 4095 but in MQTT topic stil 0:
"adc1": {
    "value": 0
  },
  "adc2": {
    "value": 0
  },
  "adc3": {
    "value": 0
  },
  "adc4": {
    "value": 0
  },

  H32B smar home app connection
Posted by: Saif Kitany - 12-07-2024, 01:27 PM - Forum: KC868-HxB series Smart Controller - Replies (7)

Hello technical support team,

I have H32b controller, and I use kincony smart home app. I was controlling the H32B by the kincony smart home app (with ethernet cable and UDP mode), and Kbox app (with wifi and TCP server mode)and everything were working perfectly, till my router got broken.

I bought new router, with same gateway ip address as the old one.

Now, the new router, has new wifi network, and i set the new network and password in wifi settings of the H32B, and I succeeded to control the H32B controller by Kbox app, but i still not able to control the H32B controller by kincony smart home app.

Is there any settings i have to update in the router or H32b ethernet settings?

free GPIO: 2CH (without pull-up resistance on PCB, connect with ESP32 pin directly)
RF receiver socket: 433MHz RF receiver
[Image: F24-11_small.jpg]
[Image: F24-2_small.jpg]
[Image: F24-4_small.jpg]
software solution:
1. download KinCony KCS firmware, so that work with multi protocol: HTTP, MQTT, TCP, RS485 modbus, Tuya app, config OUTPUT for “momentary” and “interlock” group functions. use Tuya mobile phone app directly, support voice control by Alexa and Google home speaker directly. “KCS” support IFTTT function work locally without internet. It also support use by KinCony cloud server. KCS v3 support home assistant auto discovery function by MQTT, so without any config file for home assistant.
2. download firmware by ESPHome, integrate to home assistant or use by web service.
3. download tasmota firmware.
4. write your own arudino code for your own requirements.
5. It is recommended to use home assistant and Tuya mobile phone app at the same time. So that remote control by internet using Tuya app, local control by LAN using home assistant app.
