Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to use a small display that warns of the status of the outputs or inputs of COL.
in the photo I put a led (far right) that warns me of a condition (lack of pellets in the boiler). but I would like a small lcd or display, maybe settable. is there anything compatible?

                    Hello,

Thank you again for your invaluable help in configuring and testing your Kincony PLCs !

You will find attached the photos of the PLC arrangements and the wiring diagram of the probes connected to the KC868-COLB PLC.

As you know, kincony PLCs can only supply 500ma in 12Volts to the power supply output connectors used to power an outdoor sensor.

We cannot directly connect and supply the 3 measurement probes on the KC868-COLB PLC, we must supply the 2 remaining probes by a dedicated 220V to 12volts 2 ampere converter.

As we need to feed 3 probes:

1. a wind speed and outdoor light measurement probe (supplied directly by the power connectors of the KC868-COLB PLC, see attached photo Blue cable for – and white cable for +)
   
2. a soil humidity and temperature measurement probe (supplied directly by an energy converter 220V to 12 volts 2 amps)
   
3. a nitrate rate measurement probe (supplied directly by the same 220V to 12 volt 2 ampere energy converter).
   

1. a wind speed and exterior light measurement probe (connected to the digital connector D1 + by the brown connector cable, see attached photo)
   
2. a soil humidity and temperature measurement probe (connected to the analog connector A1 + by the green cable; connected to the analog connector A2 + by the yellow cable)
   
3. a nitrate rate measurement probe (connected to the A3 + analog connector by the green cable).
   

Is it possible to turn Wi-Fi completely off by any way (software or hardware)? I’d like to use my KC868-H32B controller in mqtt ethernet mode with radio module completely turned off.

improvement:
1. fixed work with some router maybe have DHCP problem.
2. add the "loop" mode for IFTTT "THEN" command. Now you can set times=255 will alway running the "THEN" command, never stop.

What is the difference between the KNX system and the KINCONY system?

Dear Kincony. 

My COL and H32 boards are connected via WiFi. They are both connected via the RS232 cable. I have taken the screenshots but unable to display them on the page as such i have zip them up as attachment.

My issue is i am able to switch on the relay using the SCB Application but when i use the KC868-H32 application it does not work. Is my configuration on the VISCOM correct? I want to be able to switch relays on in the LAN environment and the WAN environment using either applications.

Also, when it comes necessary to run the SCB application i must be able to use that also especially if i want to use the IFTTT.

Please help

Regards
Subas

improvement:
1. Support connect to 2 cloud server work at the same time by UDP (KinCony's Cloud server) and MQTT (private MQTT broker server)

2. Fixed controller have delay time when send a large number of commands control relay in TCP Server mode.

3. add auto switch communication line function: if "wifi" and "ethernet " all use by "UDP" work mode connect to KinCony's cloud server. when ethernet line is disconnected (or bad), controller will switch to use "wifi", if ethernet cable is connected, then will switch to use ethernet line connect to cloud server again.

4. when use KinCony smart home app by "UDP" work mode, if turn ON/OFF any relay will feedback the relay state and digital input state to MQTT message.

5. add MQTT query relay state and input state command.
payload={"relay8":{"read":1}}  will feedback 8 relays and 8 input state

6. add RS232 command for wifi and ethernet work mode reset
send："reset-lan"          will set "ethernet" work mode by TCP Server and IP static=192.168.1.200
send："reset-wifi-lan"    will set "ethernet" and "wifi" work mode by UDP , IP mode by DHCP
