smart IR RF Zigbee gateway – KinCony Z1

we have designed Z1 by ESP32S3 + Tuya ZSU Zigbee 3.0 module. It based on ESP32-S3-WROOM-1U (N16R8) wifi chip. it support use by ESPHome for home assistant for smart home automation DIY. Z1 use KCS v3 firmware, it support home assistant auto discovery function by MQTT, so without write any config code (zero code) for home assistant. KCS v3 support KinCony board integrate to Loxone Miniserver and Apple HomeKit.

make sure zigbee product should MUST be zigbee3.0 standard protocol. We suggest purchasing Zigbee products from KinCony.

You can define RF and IR buttons to control TV or air conditioner or other IR devices by IR signal.
Z1 can pair with zigbee3.0 standard protocol products. create IFTTT command for zigbee sensor, so that zigbee sensor automatic send command to relay board or other devices using customize command.

You can write any code by Arduino IDE / Micro Python / ESP-IDF development tool to ESP32-S3 module. We will supply Arduino demo code for different samples. Everyone can modify and change the code for your own smart home automation system project.

now you can use new ip address login KCS system:

enable zigbee function, press “save” button.

press “Permit Join” button, begin learn zigbee sensor signal. make sure zigbee product should MUST be zigbee3.0 standard protocol.

hold on zigbee sensor “join” button, then LED will blink.

zigbee door sensor have been added.

in KCS monitor webpage, will show the digital input1 ico for the zigbee door sensor.

use this way to add zigbee PIR sensor:

hold on zigbee sensor “join” button, then LED will blink.

zigbee PIR sensor have been added.

in KCS monitor webpage, will show the digital input2 ico for the zigbee PIR sensor.

use this way to add zigbee temperature humidity sensor:

KCS monitor webpage showed temperature and humidity sensor data.
