Hello,

I want to use the outputs of a KC868-A8 to control 8 of my heating valves. They require 230V and not too much power, this should work fine.

However, I would like to use the inputs to read the state of the wall thermostats. These are usually connected directly to the valves, and are therefore delivering 230V if closed. Can you recommend a good way how I could connect these to the KC868-A8 inputs?

Thanks you!

We have designed the new version of "switch terminal board" -- KC868-AK. This is a powerful ESP32 programmable keyborad , support by home assistant via ESPHome for home automation DIYer. It also can work with KinCony's smart relay controller. let your wall switch panel can work with "1-click" , "2-click" and "hold on" actions.

The detail about RF pins at KC868-A8-schematic is not clear.
With try and error and help of a multimeter as the pins are covered. 

The pins are as in picture.

We have designed KC868-HA RS485 button adapter, let your old switch or traditional switch become smart, work with KC868-H32B Pro smart relay controller, use any “Latch” or “Momentary” switch panel work with your smart home automation. This time, regular switch can be used in smart home system.
