  KC868-AIO connecting to ESPHome
Posted by: slava - 11-10-2024, 05:36 AM - Forum: KC868-AIO - Replies (1)

I am trying to connect KC868-AIO to ESPHome. Home Assistant and ESPHome are installed on my QNAP server in separate docker containers. I connected KC868-AIO to my computer with a USB data cable but it does not show up in the list of the available ports. What is wrong?

Question DI8
Posted by: Vaughan2024 - 11-09-2024, 10:24 PM - Forum: Development - Replies (1)

Hi,
Can I use the DI8 input to detect a DC signal in the range of 0.8 to 1.5 V? I previously used an Arduino Mega, which could read voltage levels on its digital I/O pins. Now, I’m looking to replace the Arduino with an ESPHome solution that can accomplish the same task.
The goal is for the signal to be represented as an On or Off input in Home Assistant.
Is this setup feasible? Or are there better methods to bring 0.8 to 1.5 V DC signals into Home Assistant?
Thank you!

  Clarification on CT Clamp Sensor Input Assignments for Split-Phase Monitoring
Posted by: ironbill - 11-09-2024, 09:27 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (3)

I am configuring the KC868-M30 to monitor a split-phase residential electrical system in the United States, which consists of two hot legs: L1 and L2 with a total of 30 spaces. I seek clarification on the assignment of the 30 CT clamp sensor inputs. Specifically, I would like to know if there is a required mapping between the sensor inputs and the two-phase legs. Should the inputs be organized as follows:

  • Inputs 1–10 assigned to Phase A (L1)
  • Inputs 11–20 assigned to Phase B (L2)
  • Inputs 21–30 left unassigned or used for other purposes

Or is it permissible to connect the CT clamps to any input channel, regardless of the phase they are monitoring, as long as the configuration in the software accurately reflects the phase association for each input?

Understanding the correct procedure is crucial for ensuring accurate phase identification and power calculations. Your guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Smile What makes the ESP32 chip better over the older ESP8266?
Posted by: alice_amira - 11-08-2024, 04:38 PM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - No Replies

The ESP32 is an upgraded chip over the ESP8266, designed with more advanced features and higher performance. Unlike the ESP8266, the ESP32 includes a dual-core processor, integrated Bluetooth (both Classic and BLE), and enhanced Wi-Fi capabilities, making it more versatile for IoT and smart home applications. It has more GPIO pins, higher processing power, and lower power consumption modes, allowing for more complex, efficient projects. Overall, the ESP32 is ideal for developers seeking improved performance and additional connectivity options in their devices.

  M30 energy consumption not measured
Posted by: sebastianfs - 11-07-2024, 04:39 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (1)

Hi guys,

I received my M30 board yesterday and installation was straightforward.

Now I have a problem that I can't explain. The energy consumption of all sensors is always 0.00 kWh, although voltage, current and power are available.

I´m using you YAML template for ESP Home and my goal is to integrate the energy consumption into the energy dashboard of Home Assistant.

I hope you can help me to solve this issue

  Energy consumption not measured
Posted by: sebastianfs - 11-07-2024, 04:31 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (2)

Hi,

yesterday I received my M30 board and the installation was straight forward.

Now I have a problem that I can't explain. All 30 current clamp sensors do not measure the energy constumtion (kwh). Voltage, current and power are shown without any issue, but the energy sensors are always 0.00 kWh.

I´m using your yaml template for ESP Home and my goal is to integrate the sensors into the energy dashboard of Home Assistant.

I hope you can help me to solve this issue.

  A16 and HC-SR04
Posted by: MnM - 11-07-2024, 09:48 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (1)

Hi,

I have an A16 board and I will like to add 2 x HC-SR04 devices to it.

I understand how to configure the pins in ESPHome so all is good on that side.

My question is more the electrical part - the HC-SR04 units require 5v each.

On the A16 schematics I cannot see anywhere where that outputs 5v.

I see in another thread (https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread...ht=HC-SR04) that the  433MHz receiver data pin on PCB produces 5v - is that the middle PIN that produces 5V?
And will I be able to power 2 or more (4?) x  HC-SR04 units from it?

Thanks.
