  kc868-a32 ethernet problems
Posted by: jy1999 - 09-01-2023, 10:41 PM - Forum: KC868-A32/A32 Pro - Replies (14)

just got a new kc868-a32, connect to router with ethernet cable, same as my desktop etc. Using power adaptor from the package, 12vdc 2A. But, the connection is not detected by Home Assistance, nor I can see from my router network map etc. Changed ethernet cable as well. Tried resetting the board, and power off/on multiple times, still no lucky.

I am using the ESPHome script in HA, as suggested by KC. Appreciate any help or suggestion. Thanks.

hello,

Could you create a simple tutorial video on how to communicate between a PLC and KC868-Server Raspberry Pi4 via Ethernet? For example, sending data like temperature (Analog) from Raspberry Pi to Mitsubishi PLC, and controlling PLC inputs and outputs through Raspberry Pi.

Thank you for you help.

  [KC868-AG] IR not working
Posted by: NEOhidra - 08-30-2023, 11:46 AM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (9)

The short version - RF works fine, but IR does not work.

Here is my configuration:

Code:
esphome:
  name: "${name_id}"
  friendly_name: "${name}"
  comment: "${comment}"

esp32:
  board: esp32dev
  framework:
    type: arduino

logger:
  level: DEBUG

<<: !include sections/common.yaml

remote_receiver:
  - id: receiver_ir
    pin:
      number: GPIO23
      inverted: True
    dump: all

It is producing this log (config_default_log.txt) when I am pressing the same button multiple times.
The following log entry correlates with each button press:
Quote:Component remote_receiver took a long time for an operation (0.05 s).

Logged code values are always somehow random.

Trying to send, one of the received random codes is not possible. Always because of: "Inconsistent data, not sending"
The log is attached as "config_default_log_error.txt"

Am I doing something incorrectly and causing this issue?
