			<description><![CDATA[I just purchased a AS-ESP32-S3 device to act as a voice assistant for my Home Assistant. When I received the unit, something inside it was rattling around loosely - like something had broken inside. Not sure if that's ultimately important or not. <br />
<br />
When I plugged the device into the HA server, all of the lights turned blue and a tone built up in about 3 steps to a steady tone. The tone continued without stopping for as long as I had the device plugged it (up to 15 minutes, when I unplugged it). It doesn't seem to me that it was flashed with any new firmware as described in this YouTube video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-KsrZjFljY" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-KsrZjFljY</a><br />
<br />
While the tone was sounding, I did try to configure the device in my home assistant. I selected "Add Device", saw ESPHome and selected it, and was presented with a modal asking for the host ip address, which I provided. I got a "Unable to connect to the ESPHome device. Make sure the device's YAML configuration includes an 'api' section." as shown in the attached screenshot. I have no way to access any YAML that the device might be using since I can't access the device and can't do anything with it in Home Assistant.<br />
<br />
What do I do to get this thing working?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Beste forum, <br />
ik heb twee Kincony KC 868 A-serie IO-boards, één A4 die werkt met ESP Home en Home Assistant, maar de andere A4 ESP kan niet worden aangesloten. Het verbindingsboard is aangesloten via USB en blijft laden, het board schakelt relais en de zoemer om zonder resultaat. Moet dit board in de flashmodus worden gezet? Zo ja, hoe werkt dat?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hello, friends. Thank you so much for your products—I’ve been using them with great pleasure. However, I’ve encountered an issue while trying to set up your KC868-HAv21 RS485.<br />
<br />
I connected it via RS485 to the KC868-A2, using the ESPHOME firmware. I added your component from GitHub, and the settings on the HAv2 are factory defaults. Controlling the digital outputs (D1-D6) works fine, but when it comes to changes in the state of the digital inputs, the ESPHome logs only show the following messages:<br />

found a kc868_ha board, target_relay_controller_addr=1, switch_adapter_addr=10, bind_output=1 (also bind output 1-8)  <br />
What am I doing wrong? Could it be due to incorrect bind_output parameters? If so, which numbers should I specify?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hi all,<br />
 I've recently deployed a Kincony B16M and flashed it with the stock kincony-b16m.yaml config. <br />
<br />
I’m using the digital outputs to control HF41F relays mounted on 41F-1Z-C2-1 boards.<br />
Each relay coil is connected with a 1N4007 flyback diode across A1 and A2. Wiring is as follows:<br />
<ul class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">+12V DC</span> to A1<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">1N4007</span> across A1 and A2 (cathode on A1)<br />
</li>
<li>A2 wired to <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DO1</span><br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DC port</span> connected to -12V (to complete the circuit)<br />
</li>
</ul>
<br />
The issue:<br />
When the B16M boots, <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DO1 immediately energizes the relay</span>, even though in the WebUI the output appears <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">OFF</span>. Toggling DO1 via the WebUI has no effect on the relay—it remains stuck on. I’ve tried both <br />
<br />
 inverted: true <br />
<br />
inverted: false in the YAML under  b16m-output01, but neither changes the behavior.<br />
<br />
Here's the relevant YAML snippet:<br />
<br />
<div class="codeblock"><div class="title">Code:</div><div class="body" dir="ltr"><code>switch:<br />
  - platform: gpio<br />
    name: "b16m-output01"<br />
    pin:<br />
      pcf8574: pcf8574_hub_out_1<br />
      number: 0<br />
      mode: OUTPUT<br />
      inverted: true</code></div></div>At this point I’m trying to determine whether I’m dealing with a hardware issue or if there’s a nuance with the output logic I’ve missed. Any insights would be appreciated.<br />
Thanks in advance.]]></description>
