Hi

(Running KCS1.0.24, with TCP Server enabled)

Trying to read the state of the inputs on a KC868-AI via C# with TCP. I've found this article (https://www.kincony.com/smart-controller...tocol.html) but I'm not getting the data they describe.

Whenever I pull digital input 1 to 9 to ground, I read 17 from the socket. Whenever I pull digital input 10 through 48 to ground, I read 18 from the socket.

What is the protocol for TCP on KC868-AI?

Hello everyone ! I have bought some KC868 - A6 modules, a Dwin DMG10600T070 display, which has a configurable RS232 or TTL serial interface port. The screen is powered at 12V and GND is linked to the power and RX - TX communication pins (DB9, pin 2 TX2, pin 3 RX2, pin 5 gnd). When I use the screen simulator and connect the KC868-A6 module to the PC's USB port, the program works perfectly and the communication executes the programmed commands. My query now is how can I program the arduino based KC868-A6 module for RS232 serial communication with the display with the RS232 port that the module has!.

Here is "KCS" firmware for KinCony KC868-A series (ESP32) board.
How to download and use, online guide: https://www.kincony.com/kcs-firmware-esp32-board.html
   
v1.0.24 improment:

1. Fix some text in webpage.
2. Fix timer bug for different channel reset problem.
3. Let MQTT message feedback only one time, before will be twice.
4. Support RS485 MODBUS Button Adapter – KC868-HA
5. Fix bug of DAC output with tuya app problem.

improvement:

add "MOTT feedback all channels" option in webpage setting. Support home bridge.

Enable= MQTT message will feedback all channels state
Disable= MQTT message will feedback single channel

   
   

Can anybody help me with information relating to the ESP32 GPIO pin used to connect the IRQ (nINT) from the PCF8574 (Digital inputs 1 to 6).

I need to be able to capture very irregular (maybe 10 per minute) but short pulses (< 10mS duration) pulses without missing any.

I would hate to have to schedule I2C reads every 5mS or less to make sure nothing is missed.

I have had a look at the KC868-A4 schematic and the DI1-DI4 pins are directly GPIO connect, not through a PCF8574 GPIO extender.

Hi
It's possible to use the bluetooth of the A8 ;
How to have access to bluetooth (esphome, tasmota, KCS); 

Thank you.

I am building a house, tell me what is better to use for a smart home:
16 group curtains and roller shutters (I have an RR06 receiver under the roller shutter and I need to connect it to a low current switch and see them in the home assistant) ).
I want to manage underfloor heating, I have 2 floors and warm floors everywhere, it is desirable to manage separately separately.
I will also have RGB in my room and the lighting will also control it (about 5 rooms with RGB), and around the house there will also be ice in the caecum, but an ordinary tape, 300 meters of tape in a circle.
There is also a snow melting system in a circle (ProfiTherm D-4, D-3, ProfiTherm Eko Plus), the shower would be controlled. Lighting will also be about 50 groups.
Cameras in a circle (I want to implement the structure of faces)
Also interested in IC management.
I have a rassbury pi 4 8gb.
