"KCS" v3.4.0 firmware for B16M F16 F24 A32Pro controller - admin - 12-27-2024
v3.4.0 improvement:
1. Added Loxone Miniserver UDP protocol
2. Added RS485 sensor
3. When DO is ALL ON, increase the delay of each channel and the delay is 10ms, so that can protect power supply.
4. Fix the problem that multiple DI false configurations in ifttt cannot work well.
5. Fix the problem that ifttt processing will be blocked when mqtt is disconnected

Hello, is it possible to set DI somewhere so that it recognizes a 90ms pulse? I would like to connect a consumption meter to the A32PRO, which has a pulse output with a counter length of just 90ms.

you can try, because the digital input work with PCF8575 i2c chip. not connect with ESP32 pin directly.

I tried it. I have this electricity meter https://www.amazon.se/-/en/DIGITAL-WATER-ENERGY-METER-ZW3/dp/B010AV81SQ but when connected to gnd and DI I see a permanently on state in the web environment. Can I also connect +vdc to DI, or does it only work with gnd? Maybe the problem is that the power meter has terminals for measuring pulses connected to gnd (I haven't verified this, I'm just guessing), because I can't explain otherwise why it should be permanently on. I still tried to change the settings on the system page, but when I reduced the times, I got permanently off, no impulses. How exactly do the "hold on time" and "double click time" settings work?

if you are using A32 Pro, you can test with W1 , W2 port, these are free GPIOs, it connect with ESP32-S3 pin directly.

Yes, I'm using the A32 PRO.
1. Do I have to modify the BIN file somehow, or can I simply connect this meter to W1? How do I then get this GPIO into the visualization in webpage, or in loxone?
2. Am I assuming correctly that I will bring 3V3 pulses to W1?
3. Can I use +12VDC on DI1-40, or only GND?

if you want to use your own electricity pulse meter, KCS firmware not support that. need you config by ESPHome or write own arduino code.
