Sauna automation with Loxone and Kincony

Sun, 05 Oct 2025 20:23:58 +0800

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to automate my sauna using Loxone together with Kincony hardware.
My setup requires:

Two temperature sensors (sauna room and heater)
At least three relay outputs for sauna control (heater, ventilation, safety, etc.)
One or two relays for lighting

I already found some information in the forum about integrating the relay outputs with Loxone, which looks straightforward.
However, I’m still unsure about the OneWire temperature sensors – I know how to connect them to the Kincony board, but I don’t know how to get the temperature values into Loxone.
Would the KC868-A8 v3 board be a good choice for this setup, or is there another Kincony board that fits better?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!

Loxone RS485

Tue, 15 Jul 2025 23:08:10 +0800

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.

KC868-A6 tasmota digital/analog input integration to Loxone

Wed, 15 Jan 2025 22:10:35 +0800

Hello,

can you provide info how to integrate http commands for loxone to read digital and analog inputs via tasmota firmware?
Or how we can read DI/AI inputs from this board in the loxone?
Can we use e.g. UDP commands somehow in the tasmota and loxone?

Thanks

Which parts to order for Loxone Project?

Wed, 11 Dec 2024 07:29:53 +0800

Hi,

just recently found about your Boards and luckily there is also some Loxone integration options available right from the producer. Great!

I would like to double check which parts / boards should I order to integrate with Loxone.
Loxone (master) <-> Kincony boads (Slave)

Eventually MQTT,UDP or Tasmota system would be also fine to integrate with Loxone (as i have already few devices working)

Here is the list what I would like to have:

KC868-E16S

Preferably via LAN Cable (due to stability and latency)
12-16x Relays to operate 230v devices. Relays should be easily replaceable as on KC-868-E16 boards
few DI for Digital Buttons, Impulse meter / Power consumption
KC868-E16S (not sure if 1-wire is there, but I see some I2C Extender on board
1-wire for Temperature / Humidity sensor
I2C support for SHT31 sensors or SCD30 (temp/hum/co2)
Probably some additional board to get AO ports
2-3x AO 0-10v controller for FANs

Some of those features should be possible via
KC868-E16S
or KC868-E16T (not sure what is the difference, + Tuya support feature?)
In case there is newer / more suitable board, please let me know

Thanks!

You just need to select "Virtual Outputs" and import this template. After this file is imported only the IP address as per user's ip address has to be give. There is no need to configure all the 32 relays for ON and OFF commands.
