Hello,

I currently use AD2USB to communicate with my Honeywell Vista alarm system. Together with ser2sock (serial to socket), in bash/Linux, I use:

if exec 3</dev/tcp/localhost/444555 ; then
  cat <&3 | while read -t12 msg ; do
        # Print last keypad/console message.
        # Example: ****DISARMED****  Ready to Arm
        echo "$msg"
        sleep 1
  done
fi

There are also functions to send commands to the alarm as if it were typed on the keypad.

How does one send/receive to/from the TA ESP32-S3 via command line/bash scripts?

Thanks

Hi,
I have an older version of the Kincony KC868-A16 board (green). I install KCS version 2.2.17 or 2.2.18 on it. I can login in (www), and set my parameters. Then I add the prepared board to Home Assistant via ESP32. I add a new device, the ESP32, and a yaml file is generated. I copy its contents to Notepad. Then I clear the yaml file and paste the code from the ESP32 for HA website into the board. I replace the key entries with the one from Notepad. OTA, Wi-Fi. The code saves without any errors. I install it via USB. Reboot DC. Plugin ethernet cable. Everything is fine. Home Assistant sees the board and I can control relays, etc. And here's the problem description. But I can't access the board via a browser; it doesn't report its IP address. The board search tool doesn't see it either. But the I/O support in HA works. What am I doing wrong?

New unit!
Installed KCS
(Loaded .bin-file via USB, looks loading OK)
Search withe IPScanner for the unit, dont find it!
No LEDs is flashing at all on the net-cable
Try to reset >10sek with Dowload-button and/or Reset-button, nothing changes!
Any other way to hardware-reset
Any idea?

Where can I find the KinCony_SCAN_Device.zip  file ? The links give me a 404 not find

bonjour, nouveau sur le forum et nouveau possesseur d'une carte KC868-A16 (V1.6)
J'ai plusieurs questions, 
- je cherche à l'aide de la carte KC868-A16 v1.6 à communiquer en MODBUS TCP avec un automate Crouzet EM4, déjà est ce que cela est possible avec la carte V1.6 ?
je voudrais recuperer des valeurs de capteurs de température sur la carte pour les utiliser dans le programme du EM4.
- Par ou commencer avec cette carte ? quelle firme installer de base et ensuite quelle fichier bin me conseillez vous ?
- Précision mon automate Crouzet EM4 et connecter au reseau Ethenet de mon installation qui comporte et communique également avec
une installation home assistant.
Par avance merci de votre aide

I am using a KC868-A8 board.
I am using it in a setup where a standard wall light switch provides a contact signal to KC868-A8 Input-1, and this triggers Relay 1 to operate.
Sometimes the relay turns off late, or the light does not turn on when I switch the wall switch ON, or it turns on late.
I suspect this might be due to contact bounce (chattering).
Is there any solution for this?
Can this be resolved within the KC868 UI through a firmware update?
Using ESPHome to add an input delay feels burdensome for me.
I am not good at coding.
Controlling it through the UI is more convenient and preferable for me.

Hola Amigo, Tengo problemas, no puedo cargar el .bin al KC868 A2, me sale este error al subir:

I flashed the Kincony software to the KC868-AP board.

Because I'm working with a MIFI 4G router I can only make a connection over WIFI.  Fix connection with ethernet cable is not possible.

I suppose the esp32 on the board has to be in AP-mode to fill in the correct SSID and password or my network. 
How can I put the board in AP mode ?

Generally current transformers should have the ability to be shorted in order to perform maintenance. Disconnecting a current transformer while it is installed on a current carrying conductor can result in damage, although at residential current levels this is not as likely.

Often shorting terminal strips are used but on a whim I've decided to make my own shorting terminal block tailored for my N20.
Components are almost all on hand.
Waiting for a DIN rail mounted pcb holder to arrive.
Once that shows up I'll confirm measurements and send the circuit board design for fabrication.
