Loxone RS485 - marekzerzan - 07-15-2025

I noticed that Kincony also has RS485 communication, it is more difficult, but it seems safer to me without dependence on the local network.

Does anyone have experience with this integration please?

Maybe first question it's Modbus RS485 or "RAW" RS485?

I am new owner "KC868-A32M 32 Channel ESP32 MOSFET Board".
I'm currently struggling to see it on the network at all, it may have DHCP set up, but I can't see it anywhere on the network after connecting.

ohh, thanks.
I have it, communication port is COM4 not COM3 for me.

ok, now I have
Board Model KC868_A32M
Software Version v2.2.14
Build Date Jun 26 2025 07:36:47

and now I can see in configuration RS485 - MODBUS-RTU, it means I need Loxone modbus extension not rs485
