Home Assistant mqtt don't works - inputs/outputs unavailable - AlenDinDon - 07-19-2025
Dear Kincony
I have a new KC868_A8
I bought to use it with Home Assistant input/output
I set mqtt on the KC868_A8 as your guide and it works fine. Connection is done.
I have a problem on home assistant - it can find all the inputs/outputs but the are always unavailable. Can't work
Where is the problem?
I see the IP of the board is not set on the configuration file. Is it right?
the board is: KC868-A8-V1.7
home assistant is updated to last version
enclosed you can find the configuration.yaml file
how can I fix?
thank you in adavance, best regards from Italy!

Dear Admin
Thank you very much for your answer
I floowed the guide you posted to reach my goal
actually after a few reboots of the board and HomeAssistant the mqtt system started working correctly
just a question:
- If I want to add a second device, do I have to repeat the entire configuration by changing the serial number of the second device?
thank you in advance for your answer
best regards
Giovanni

yes, you are right. different controller have different serial number.
