  How Watt Measurement Works
Posted by: margusveer - 11-18-2025, 06:52 PM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (1)

I'm away from my project again for a few days, but I managed to quickly connect one cable before I left. I managed to connect one CT sensor and now I see that this channel even shows some Amp consumption on Current_1.  
But same channel Power and Energy = 0 ?
Do I understand correctly that since I don't have L1 and N1 attached, it won't be able to calculate power and energy data?
And If I'm right, then since I have three-phase current (380V), I have to connect each phase separately, i.e. L1, L2 and L3
and in turn, since I have three different phases, it would be most correct to measure the devices that are behind the first phase in the first part and the devices that are behind the second phase in the second part, then the calculation will be most accurate, although at the same time the differences in phase currents are minimal, i.e. 0.0x Volts, it does not make much difference which phase is behind which sector to measure

  Analog Inputs via MQTT HA Auto Discover
Posted by: petermac - 11-16-2025, 12:28 PM - Forum: F16 - Replies (1)

When using HA Auto Discover with KCS 3, should the analog inputs be detected and shown in Home Assistant?  I'm only getting the digital inputs.  Or do I need to use ESP Home?

  B16 password reset
Posted by: lelik_ku - 11-16-2025, 12:17 PM - Forum: B16 - Replies (6)

Hello, I try to login to B16 default web UI (http://192.168.4.1/login.html) and enter admin/admin password.
Receive Password incorrect error.
I don't remember if I changed the password, so I need to reset it do default.
Tried to push DL and Reset buttons for 10+ seconds, the device reboots, but admin/admin is still not correct.
Also tried admin without a password, also tried admin/jingkong - still not getting access.

  KC868-A16v3 Issue, No Display USB connection
Posted by: dusty82 - 11-14-2025, 05:32 AM - Forum: KC868-A16v3 - Replies (3)

Hello,

I received my KC868-A16v3 today that I ordered directly from KinCony.  When I apply 12v using the provided power supply, the red power LED illuminates and the Digital Output light cycle through their lights but nothing is displayed on the screen.  When I connect the included USB cable to my Windows PC it says "USB device not recognized".  I've received the same result from two different windows PC's.  

Do you have any suggestions that may help me? I tried to insert a picture but was unable to.

Thanks,
dusty82

  Using KC868 A2 with Home Assistant / MQTT
Posted by: dco333 - 11-12-2025, 06:52 PM - Forum: KC868-A2 - Replies (1)

Hi, 
I didn't found any manual for this board, but the A8 has one here in the forum.

https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=7164

I have adapted it for using it with the A2 board. So if anyone searches this info, just follow the steps in the A8 posting, but instead add the following to your /homeassistand/configuration.yaml file.

Code:
  switch:
   - name: 'a2-kcs-output-1'
     unique_id: a2-kcs-output-1
     state_topic: 'KC868_A2/99999648C3D98/STATE'
     command_topic: 'KC868_A2/99999648C3D98/SET'
     payload_on:  '{"output1":{"value":true}}'
     payload_off:  '{"output1":{"value":false}}'
     value_template: '{{ value_json.output1.value }}'
     state_on: true
     state_off: false
   - name: 'a2-kcs-output-2'
     unique_id: a2-kcs-output-2
     state_topic: 'KC868_A2/99999648C3D98/STATE'
     command_topic: 'KC868_A2/99999648C3D98/SET'
     payload_on:  '{"output2":{"value":true}}'
     payload_off:  '{"output2":{"value":false}}'
     value_template: '{{ value_json.output2.value }}'
     state_on: true
     state_off: false

Just replace the ID 99999648C3D98 with your board serial number, shown under "Index" in the WebGUI of the KCS software.

I just added the relay-switches, I don't know if there are any more possibilities linke binary sensors or anything. If yes, I think the code from the A8 can be easily adapted.

It worked fine for me. 

Regards

  N30+KCS v3.15.0
Posted by: HolyKirka - 11-12-2025, 10:38 AM - Forum: "KCS" v3 firmware - Replies (6)

Hello.

I bought N30 (Ali, KinCony Store). Download and write KCS v3.15.0 firmware for N30.

Some observations.

LAN - DHCP does not work. Only static IP.
Cant find IfTTT settings.
Cant find ModBus settings.
HTTP protocol does ot work for me, or I do something wrong.
http://my_ip/ctrl.cgi?secret=abcd&cmd=ge...=0&value=0
{ "status": "success", "code": 0 }
For: get_inputs, get_outputs, get_adcs, get_dacs, get_all_datas - the same

After changing Current Factor to take effect Reset ARM CPU button must be pressed.
Current Factor:
In youtube video Current Factor mean:
Value*CurrentFactor=desired value.

It's not TRUE. It works like:
Value/CurrentFactor=desired value.

I use CT 3000/1 and need to correct values. N30 gives 0.12A instead real value is about 0.17A

Next one. I connect N30 N2L2 to power source.

And I have Power Factor is 0.00. Is it correct?
Voltage and Frequency are shown correctly.

Best wishes.

PS If I found something else - will update post.
