RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - igurgo - 10-17-2023

I pasted this into the yaml file:

mqtt:
  switch:
    - name: output64
      state_topic: "KC868_A64/D4D4DAE11DC0/STATE"
      command_topic: "KC868_A64/D4D4DAE11DC0/SET"
      payload_on: '{"output64":{"value":true}}'
      payload_off: '{"output64":{"value":false}}'
      state_on: true
      state_off: false

After this I can control the output64 from HA.
But I don't see the history and event log in HA.


Уже разобрался. Спасибо!


RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - admin - 10-18-2023

do you means you only can't see output64? output1--63 can be seen? or all output can't see history in HA?

If I may ask, I would like to inquire whether in a future version, the control of the buzzer will also be exposed via MQTT... it would be very useful; currently, I don't see it in MQTT Explorer. At the moment, I have added the sensors. I'm leaving the example code for anyone interested.
  sensor:
    - name: "ADC-1"
      unique_id: a16-kcs-adc-1
      state_topic: "KC868_E16S/B8D61A5AA69C/STATE"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.adc1.value }}"
      unit_of_measurement: "Unità"
    - name: "ADC-2"
      unique_id: a16-kcs-adc-2
      state_topic: "KC868_E16S/B8D61A5AA69C/STATE"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.adc2.value }}"
      unit_of_measurement: "Unità"
    - name: "ADC-3"
      unique_id: a16-kcs-adc-3
      state_topic: "KC868_E16S/B8D61A5AA69C/STATE"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.adc3.value }}"
      unit_of_measurement: "Unità"
    - name: "ADC-4"
      unique_id: a16-kcs-adc-4
      state_topic: "KC868_E16S/B8D61A5AA69C/STATE"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.adc4.value }}"
      unit_of_measurement: "Unità"
    - name: "Sensor 1 Temperature"
      unique_id: a16-kcs-sensor-1-temperature
      state_topic: "KC868_E16S/B8D61A5AA69C/STATE"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.sensor1.temperature }}"
      unit_of_measurement: "°C"

the newest firmware, support control buzzer by MQTT, also support read sensor data by MQTT.

RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - Brouk - 06-04-2024

I have an A16 board, it has firmware KCS_KC868_A16_V2.2.2.bin and I would like to set up communication with Home Assistant (HA).
In A16 I set the values for HA in Protocol > General > MQTT (see image). Mqtt communication can be seen in green in the Monitor.

In HA, should I add settings for communication to ESPHome or MQTT to configuration.yaml?

If I use the code according to https://www.kincony.com/kc868-a16-ethernet-home-assistant-esphome-configure.html (and change the IP address) or according to https://www.kincony.com/forum/attachment .php?aid=753 etc. so checking the file shows many errors like "duplicate key" etc.

Please can you share the full code (for all inputs, outputs, senzroy and RF signals) to put in the configuration.yaml?


RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - admin - 06-04-2024

1. if you use mqtt , you need to edit configuration.yaml. here is sample code: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3274
But we suggest you config by ESPHome is better, so that all hardware resource is easier for integration. here is ESPHome yaml for A16: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1628


RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - Brouk - 06-06-2024

Thank you i understand so I will prefer ESPHome integration.
If I use the code for ESPHome from https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1628 in the configuration.yaml and change the IP addresses of the devices, errors are reported when checking the configuration before restarting - see image. Please give the whole configuration.yaml file, or a description of the whole procedure, otherwise it still shows errors :o(


RE: KC868-A16 home assistant demo configuration.yaml by MQTT - admin - 06-06-2024

post your yaml file at here.
