if you want to use home assistant, suggest use by ESPHome, here is config yaml file:

Thanks for the reply.I just upload the yaml file to the tool and then will I be able to access the tool without modification? Smile


If I delete this line, does the device get dpch by default?

  # Optional manual IP
  manual_ip:
    static_ip: 192.168.1.199
    gateway: 192.168.1.1
    subnet: 255.255.255.0

please use ESPHome config yaml file, not use the tasmota config.

ok I will try the ESPHome config.Unfortunately I'm not familiar with it,can you give me a config that I can copy and paste and the device will work?I would like to access it via wifi but if so I would like to do it on ethernet as well.I would like to see all the inputs and outputs and I would like to connect a temperature sensor (DS18B20).Thanks for your reply Smile

do you will use "home assistant" software, it config by ESPHome.
do you already have a raspberry pi installed home assistant?

Yes yes I use HA too.I have a raspberry pi4 device with 8GB RAM version.So far I have only used sonoff,shelly and xiaomi relays and only tasmota firmware for any control.So far I have been able to solve everything with minor major errors. However I would like to switch to 'industrial' esp modules which already have a lot of outputs/inputs and I can use the ds12b20 sensor.The ESPHome is completely chinese for me,so I would really appreciate if you could give me a working yaml file to upload to the device and everything works Smile What's important is the input/output and the DS18B20 sensor as that's all I'll be using 99% of the time.I'd like to run it on WiFi by default,but I'd be happy to give it an ethernet cable so it'll wake up on that too.Thanks for your reply!

i have given you this link: https://www.kincony.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2367
it just directly to use, only need replace the static IP by yourself.
replace DS18B20 address by yourself. you will see your esphome LOG output which DS18B20 sensor scaned, then replace in your yaml file is ok.

thank you Smile i managed to add 1 sensor.My question is how many ds18b20 sensors can the panel detect?I would like to get the temperature from the sensor every 10 seconds.How can i do it?
