  KC 868 A32
Posted by: SP9HYX - 06-08-2025, 10:26 AM - Forum: KC868-A32/A32 Pro - Replies (4)

Good day
Some time ago I bought KC868 A32 and today I tried to connect to the board for the second time. I updated the driver Regarding CH341. On one of the laptops I have W11 and on the other W10/
1. I am trying to scan AP via wifi and it is not on two laptops and a phone (there is no such network - kv868)
2. I am doing a scan (IP scanner) through the router and directly connected to the laptop socket - no effect.
3. I am trying to scan if UPD Scan will show the board but it does not see it
Please help.

  M30 Extension MODBUS RTU Controller
Posted by: markwj - 06-07-2025, 08:09 AM - Forum: KC868-M16 / M1 / MB / M30 - Replies (2)

I'm trying to connect another 6 channels to the M30 using an external modbus rtu energy meter.

I've configured the external meter as ID 16 (0x10), 38400 baud, and can query it directly.

But when I configure in yaml, I don't get any result.

The relevant part of my config is as follows:

Code:
uart:
  id: modbus_uart
  rx_pin: 32
  tx_pin: 33
  baud_rate: 115200
  stop_bits: 1
  data_bits: 8
  parity: NONE
 
debug:
  update_interval: 5s

modbus:
  id: modbus_hub
  uart_id: modbus_uart

modbus_controller:
  - id: modbus_hub_m30
    address: 1
    modbus_id: modbus_hub
    update_interval: 5s
  - id: modbus_ext_m6
    address: 16
    modbus_id: modbus_hub
    update_interval: 5s

sensor:
  - platform: modbus_controller
    modbus_controller_id: modbus_ext_m6
    address: 0
    register_type: holding
    name: "Modbus Extension Model Number"
    id: mext6_model_number
    value_type: U_WORD
 
  - platform: modbus_controller
    modbus_controller_id: modbus_hub_m30
    address: 100
    register_type: holding
    name: "Lights Current"
    id: m30_1_current_1
    unit_of_measurement: A
    accuracy_decimals: 3
    value_type: U_WORD
    filters:
      - multiply: 0.00098

Is this possible, and if so any ideas what I am doing wrong? I am just seeing 'NA' for the sensor and seemingly no polling.

  USB serial not working
Posted by: mikesloper - 06-04-2025, 09:35 PM - Forum: KC868-A6v3 - Replies (6)

I just received the A6v3 board but it won't connect to my computer properly. I have to reconnected the cable about 30-40 times before I get a working serial connection. I have tried 5 different usbc and usba cables and it makes no difference. I also tried it on 2 computers using all available usb ports. I have also tried reinstalling all USB drivers. 

I have never had a problem with any ESP32 board including A6v1, A4 or any esp32 dev module including the espressif esp32-s3 devkit module.

What am I doing wrong or is this board faulty?

Board was purchased from Kincony controller store on aliexpress.

  How to send temperature sensor data via custom protocol
Posted by: sebfromgermany - 06-04-2025, 06:08 AM - Forum: KC868-A16 - Replies (1)

Hello.
I am trying to send the current temperature of a sensor to an external server. In order to do that, I set up a custom HTTP POST protocol with an URL to a PHP webpage which processes the received data.
Unfortunately I am lacking of information of how to send values via HTTP POST. There is a good documententation about how to request data from the board, but I was not able to find information about sending data from the board to an external URL.
It would be great if you could help me.
Kind regards,
Seb

  Temperature is not send to Loxone
Posted by: kotrmelec - 06-03-2025, 10:39 AM - Forum: T16M - Replies (3)

Hello, over the weekend, I got the T16M module up and running, and I was able to establish communication with my second-generation Loxone miniserver without any problems. Using UDP, I am able to read the on/off states of the DO, etc.
The only thing that isn't working, and I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, is reading the temperature status. I have a standard DS18B20 1-wire temperature sensor connected to the T16M board, I set the sensor in the board configuration and I can see the temperature(channel 1). Everything works without any problems. However, after setting the virtual input in Loxone, nothing happens. I monitored the UDP monitor in Loxone and no UDP command carrying temperature information reaches Loxone. Only commands for reading/controlling DI and DO. Is this a firmware error? Or does something else need to be set/enabled in the configuration for the temperature to be sent to Loxone?

Just to note, I am using the latest version of KCS3 firmware available right now.

Thank you in advance for your help.
