  ESPhome - connect pressure transducer?
Posted by: Vendril - 08-24-2023, 11:48 AM - Forum: KC868-A8S - Replies (3)

Hi,

Can you please show me where to connect wires for water pressure sensor?

  1. Pressure Sensor - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10050055...1802qhU8yT
  2. Gravity: Analog Water Pressure Sensor (5V) - https://wiki.dfrobot.com/Gravity__Water_...7#target_5


RED = 
BLK = can i use any GND?
GREEN = A1?


How to use in ESPhome? I am very confused.


Code:
# Example configuration
# DC 0-5v - ANALOG_A1
  - platform: gpio
    name: "ANALOG_A1"
    id: ANALOG_A1
    pin:
    number: GPIO36



KC868-A8S v1.2


Thanks

Information Demo script for KC868-AM to send and receive requests from HomeAssistant over MQTT
Posted by: LiudasLT - 08-24-2023, 09:21 AM - Forum: KC868-AM - Replies (5)

Hello,
Its me again! I bought this development board and need some help with scripting in Arduino IDE.
Maybe I missed out something, but I think my project may be useful and for other users.

I want to make KC868-AM to be able to receive requests to activate build in Relay (15) (for alarm siren) and all other GPIO pins (5, 13, 14, 33, 36, 37, 38, 39, 34) act as an input (for basic alarm system magnetic NO switch and motion sensors).
Output (Relay) and inputs should be able so receive/send notifications from/to SmartHome server over MQTT.
The device itself should be able to connect to network via LAN or WiFi.

Can someone help with the project?

Question project components help
Posted by: bartekm01 - 08-23-2023, 06:21 PM - Forum: DIY Project - Replies (3)

Hello to All,

I found kincony project very promising for my place so I wish to ask you about some support with choosing components.
At the moment I have all cables collected in one big box - cat 5e from all monostable wall switches (light and roller shutters). I have also standalone server with HA and panel/tablet for it.

I have 110 inputs to connect (from switches) and around 80 outputs(lights, roller shutters etc). Also I wish to use google voice control, have some zigbee/z-wave devices, control irrigation sprinkler systems and maybe some other home things like alarm (get info from its sensors), air condition, heating, recuperation etc.

I thought home assistant will give me possibility to tie together and control everything together with help of some kincony components and esphome:
-multiple KC868-A32 or KC868-A8
or
-multiple mosfet KC868-A16 (or KC868-A64) connected with KC868-E16V2 (preferred because relays like to be broken)
of course also zigbee gateway.

Would it work? or I need to get also some controller like KC868-H32B, KC868-H32B Pro or KC868-H32BS? if yes than could you shortly tell me why? or if it is optional in my case than would I have any benefits of getting it and could you please advice me optimal architecture for my needs?

thank you in advance for your help and suggestions!

Exclamation 12v irrigation solenoid getting really hot!
Posted by: Vendril - 08-23-2023, 01:15 PM - Forum: KC868-A8S - Replies (5)

Hi,

Using ESPHome and HomeAssistant.


Have hooked up a 12v irrigation solenoid (normally closed) to relay 8 but it is getting really hot even when it is off. 

I have it wired and coded like this:

12v jumper cable (from the board power) to the (COM) on relay 8
GND jumper cable (from the board power) to the solenoid
(NC) to the solenoid


Code:
  - platform: gpio
    name: "relay8_solenoid back wall spinkler"
    id: relay8
    pin:
      pcf8574: pcf8574_hub_out_1
      number: 7   # relay 8
      mode: OUTPUT
      inverted: true


Thanks,

  How to wire up float switch and use in ESPHome?
Posted by: Vendril - 08-23-2023, 01:07 PM - Forum: KC868-A8S - Replies (3)

Hi,

Using ESPHOME in Home Assistant.

I have 2 of these float sensor switches. How should I be wiring them up to the board and coding in ESPHome to get an "open/closed"? I thought that they would be an analog device but am not getting any readings.

Or am I using the wrong input?

Code:
##################### Analog Inputs

# 2 x DC 0-5V (AI1, AI2)
# 2 x 4-20mA (AI3, AI4)

# GPIO36      ANALOG_A1
# GPIO39      ANALOG_A2
# GPIO34      ANALOG_A3
# GPIO35      ANALOG_A4


# DC 0-5v - ANALOG_A1
  - platform: gpio
    name: "ANALOG_A1"
    id: ANALOG_A1
    pin:
      number: GPIO36
#      inverted: true


# DC 0-5v - ANALOG_A2
  - platform: gpio
    name: "ANALOG_A2"
    id: ANALOG_A2
    pin:
      number: GPIO39
#      inverted: true

# 4-20mA ANALOG_A3
  - platform: gpio
    name: "ANALOG_A3"
    id: ANALOG_A3
    pin:
      number: GPIO34
#      inverted: true

# 4-20mA ANALOG_A4
  - platform: gpio
    name: "ANALOG_A4"
    id: ANALOG_A4
    pin:
      number: GPIO35
#      inverted: true


Thanks
