  Digital inputs....
Posted by: Amaral989 - 03-10-2023, 04:05 PM - Forum: KC868-A series and Uair Smart Controller - Replies (9)

Hello everyone, 
I have a question concerning digital inputs. 
I have a RV, motorhome, that I would like to monitor.
So is it possible to provide 12vdc to the digital input. 
Actually, it depends on the battery voltage , but it can probably reach up to 14.7 volt dc. 

Will the digital input accept max of 14.7 volt. 

Thank you
John A

  USING SMART HOME APP
Posted by: JuanjoG - 03-09-2023, 08:32 AM - Forum: KC868-HxB series Smart Controller - Replies (9)

Hi Kincony!

I bought the KC868-H8B. I set the device but now I have two questions:

1. Can I set the switch icoms in the SMART HOME APP to work in momentary mode? For example to open the garage door I only need a push button.

2. Can I see the state of the INPUTS in de SMART HOME APP like I can see in the PC SOFTWARE (by LAN)?

Thank you very much.

  updating firmware kc868-h32b
Posted by: w-w - 03-06-2023, 03:05 PM - Forum: KC868-HxB series Smart Controller - Replies (8)

my unit shipped with firmware version 4.13.34

I am attempting to upload version
Relay32_V437_210907.zip

OTA seams to run for only a few seconds and does not update

Using a serial cable and the Firmware Download Tool (firmware update tool download): https://www.kincony.com/download/KC868-C...loader.zip

it detects the bootloader
downloads progress 105/105
data send complete 
then when I press Run
it says Download finished begin running.


I power cycle the device that the firmware version is not updated??
thanks

Tongue KC868-COLB V2.4 firmware support Tuya app
Posted by: admin - 03-06-2023, 02:05 PM - Forum: News - No Replies

improvement:

1. support use Tuya app for remote monitor sensor state.
2. support TCP Server, TCP Client, MQTT, Tuya different protocol at the same time by ethernet.
such as you can use Home assistant (by mqtt) in local LAN network and Tuya app for remote monitor by internet.

           

   

if you buy KC868-COLB before 2023-3-1 , you need to update your BOOTLOADER HEX file for your CPU.
Because the new firmware 2.4 is big and powerful. So you need to do two steps for update fireware.

1. update your CPU BOOTLOADER by Jlink tool.
2. update your firmware BIN file by USB-RS232 cable.

here are details:

for example, your KC868-COLB CPU chip is AT32F403AVGT7.
   
so download AT-link tool for flash BOOTLOADER.

.zip   Artery_ICP_Programmer_V3.0.07.zip (Size: 14.28 MB / Downloads: 636)
BOOTLOADER HEX file download

.zip   Bootloader_AD_V2_0_2_20210913.zip (Size: 4.88 KB / Downloads: 617)
open your KC868-COLB metal box
   
installed jlink computer driver and ready to use it.
   
here is pin define , connect jlink to your KC868-COLB PCB's download interface
   
   
   
begin download BOOTLOADER HEX file , just do as follow images:
   
   
   
   
   
after download BOOTLOADER completed, begin use RS232 download tool to download BIN file.
RS232 download tool:
https://www.kincony.com/download/KC868-C...loader.zip

BIN file download:

.zip   AD_COLB_V2_4_230228.zip (Size: 112.17 KB / Downloads: 613)

   
begin download BIN file , just do as follow images:
   
   
   

now all are completed, have a good timeSmile

Note: if you want to use Tuya mobile phoen app with KC868-COLB, need contact with us to buy Tuya lincence for KC868-COLB.

  Did I burn the DI s?
Posted by: tugalsan - 03-06-2023, 12:41 PM - Forum: KC868-A32/A32 Pro - Replies (5)

I accidently plug 12 Volt to GND of DI sockets.

Even though, I did not plugged any wire on DI, I am getting the below output. 
When I check it with Voltmeter, DIs is giving me 12V
Does that mean, I did burn the card? Or a code error?

code:

Code:
#include "PCF8574.h"

//I2C INPUT
TwoWire I2C_0 = TwoWire(0);
PCF8574 pcf8574_I1(&I2C_0, 0x24, 4, 5);
PCF8574 pcf8574_I2(&I2C_0, 0x25, 4, 5);
PCF8574 pcf8574_I3(&I2C_0, 0x21, 4, 5);
PCF8574 pcf8574_I4(&I2C_0, 0x22, 4, 5);

//I2C RELAY
TwoWire I2C_1 = TwoWire(1);
PCF8574 pcf8574_R1(&I2C_1, 0x24, 15, 13);
PCF8574 pcf8574_R2(&I2C_1, 0x25, 15, 13);
PCF8574 pcf8574_R3(&I2C_1, 0x21, 15, 13);
PCF8574 pcf8574_R4(&I2C_1, 0x22, 15, 13);

void setup_input() {
  for(int i=0;i<=7;i++){
    pcf8574_I1.pinMode(i, INPUT);
    pcf8574_I2.pinMode(i, INPUT);
    pcf8574_I3.pinMode(i, INPUT);
    pcf8574_I4.pinMode(i, INPUT);
  }
  pcf8574_I1.begin();
  pcf8574_I2.begin();
  pcf8574_I3.begin();
  pcf8574_I4.begin();
}

  }
  pcf8574_R1.begin();
  pcf8574_R2.begin();
  pcf8574_R3.begin();
  pcf8574_R4.begin();

    pcf8574_R2.digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
    pcf8574_R3.digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
    pcf8574_R4.digitalWrite(i, HIGH);
  }
}

void setup_serial(){
  Serial.begin(115200);
  while (!Serial && (millis() < 3000));
}

void print_chip_arduino(){
  Serial.print(F("\n\n----------------\n\n"));
  Serial.print(F("ARDUINO_BOARD:"));
  Serial.println(String(ARDUINO_BOARD));
}

unsigned long currentTime = millis();
void refreshCurrentTime(){
    currentTime = millis();
}

void print_loopHeader(){
  Serial.print(F("---------"));
  Serial.print(F("t: "));
  Serial.print(String(currentTime));
  Serial.println(F(" ---------"));
}

void print_input(){
  for(int i=0;i<=7;i++) {
      bool input1 = pcf8574_I1.digitalRead(i);
      bool input2 = pcf8574_I2.digitalRead(i);
      bool input3 = pcf8574_I3.digitalRead(i);
      bool input4 = pcf8574_I4.digitalRead(i);

      Serial.print(F(" I3:"));
      Serial.print(String(input3));
      Serial.print(F(" I4:"));
      Serial.println(String(input4));

  setup_serial();
  print_chip_arduino();
}

void loop() {
  refreshCurrentTime();
  print_loopHeader();
  print_input();
  delay(1000);
}

output:
Code:
