  connecting sensors
Posted by: skench - 02-02-2026, 11:07 PM - Forum: KC868-A8 - Replies (5)

Good afternoon, can you tell me how to connect a temperature and humidity sensor to the A8 or A16 boards? I have several different sensors
An AM2120 temperature and humidity sensor https://ali.click/klm2yz
There is also a BME280 pressure and temperature sensor. https://ali.click/zmm2ye
And I also bought a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor. https://ali.click/mom2y9 there's a problem with everyone, with the latest DHT22, I don't understand where to get the 5v from, which vcc pin to connect to to get the 5v? I'm acting on the picture https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3194 I tried to connect the AM2120 in different ways, both to the ds18b20 and to other neighboring ports and tried the settings in the sensors tab, as well as different firmware ksc v2, I thought there might be a problem with the firmware, but I also failed.

  TA with Home Assistant with Ethernet Only
Posted by: upstream - 02-02-2026, 10:54 PM - Forum: Getting Started with ESPHome and Home Assistant - Replies (3)

How do I get the Tiny Alarm System (TA) to work with Home Assistant?

The yaml example at this post is set to use wifi. I want to use ethernet / poe only.

However, if I remove the wifi components, this line: 

PHP Code:
platformtuya_wifi_mcu 

is located all over the place.

Does anyone have a complete yaml example without any wifi (ethernet only)?

  E16V3 - baudrate change
Posted by: ldebacker - 02-02-2026, 04:40 PM - Forum: Suggestions and feedback on KinCony's products - Replies (3)

Hello,

Is there a way to change the default RS485 baudrate (which is 38400 bps) ?

Any existing register to change the RS485 parameters ?

Thanks in advance !

Hello,
I have seen the CE certificate for the Kincony products here: https://www.kincony.com/images/patent/CCJS.2411163.pdf
This certificate mentions The Kincony V2, but not the V3.
Where can I find the certificate for the V3?
Thanks in advance !

  цифровые входы DI-1-6 на KinCony KC868-A6
Posted by: AlexeyAris - 02-01-2026, 03:30 AM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (1)

Здравствуйте! Прошу прислать пример скетча на Arduino IDE для контроллера KinCony KC868-A6
Датчик сухого контакта подключен к цифровому входу DI-1 и GND в контроллере KinCony KC868-A6.
При замыкании сухого контакта Реле 1 включается
При размыкании сухого контакта Реле 1 выключается
Напряжение на контакте DI-1 составляет 11 В. Это нормальное напряжение?

  ompatibility of ACS712 with KC868‑A6 ADC Inputs (Arduino)
Posted by: syme - 01-30-2026, 05:13 PM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (3)

Hello,

I want to measure the presence of current on a 220 V device (≤16 A) using my KC868‑A6.

I have a 20 A ACS712 current sensor (analog output 0–5 V). I plan to use Arduino code directly. Before connecting it, I would like to know:

  1. Are the analog inputs (ADC) of the KC868‑A6 (GPIO 36/39/34/35) compatible with a signal from a 20 A ACS712 when using Arduino code?
  2. Is any filtering or signal conditioning required to ensure the ADC reads it correctly?
  3. Are there any special precautions regarding ground or reference to get a reliable reading?
     4. Are there other current sensors that would be more suitable for detecting the presence of current on a 220 V device with the KC868‑A6?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Best regards

  Help needed: Bricked A6 v1.3 board
Posted by: schma - 01-30-2026, 04:00 PM - Forum: KC868-A6 - Replies (5)

Hi everyone,
I'm seeking some technical advice on reviving an A6 v1.3 board (ESP32-based).
The situation: The board was running ESPHome perfectly. However, following a Wi-Fi AP migration and some "beginner mistakes" within Home Assistant, I’ve lost all connectivity to the device.
The problem:

  • No OTA: Since the Wi-Fi credentials are now incorrect, I cannot access it over the air.
  • Serial flashing fails: I am unable to upload new firmware via the onboard USB port.
  • Hardware status: The onboard USB-to-Serial chip seems functional (it's recognized by the OS), but there is zero communication with the ESP32 SoC itself. It won't enter bootloader mode or accept any flash commands.
My questions:
  1. Is there a way to "force" this specific board into flash mode if the auto-reset circuit is failing?
  2. Can I bypass the onboard serial chip and flash the SoC directly using an external FTDI programmer? If so, does anyone have the pinout for the RX/TX/IO0/EN pads on this v1.3 board?
  3. Are there any specific recovery tools or "low-level" utilities (besides esptool.py) that you would recommend to "wake up" a non-responsive ESP32?
I would appreciate any tips or schematics to help me save this board!
Thanks in advance!

  How can I control 170 small 6V bulbs with MOSFET outputs (PWM dimming)
Posted by: hwang - 01-30-2026, 06:55 AM - Forum: Development - Replies (3)

Hi everyone,
I am building a lighting control system for about 170 mini incandescent bulbs.
Load

  • Bulbs: 6V, 0.2A each
  • Total: ~170 bulbs
Hardware Plan
I plan to use multiple Kincony KC868-A32M (32-channel MOSFET output controllers) to get enough channels.
Wiring Idea
I want to use a common +6V bus and low-side MOSFET switching:

Code:
+6V bus → bulb → MOSFET output → GND
All controllers and the 6V supply will share a common ground.

Questions
  1. Is this the correct wiring method for KC868-A32M outputs?
  2. Can these MOSFET channels support PWM dimming for incandescent bulbs, or only ON/OFF?
  3. What is the best way to control multiple KC868-A32M boards from a PC (LAN/MQTT/Modbus)?
  4. Any important power or wiring concerns for a 170-bulb system?

Thanks for any advice!
