klf-200-api

This module provides a wrapper to the official API of a KLF-200 interface. You can find the links to the firmware and the documentation at https://www.velux.com/api/klf200.

ATTENTION: This version supports the officially documented API that was introduced with firmware version 2.0.0.71. It is not compatible with older firmware versions. It is recommended that you update your KLF-200 with the new firmware version.

Installation

npm install klf-200-api --save

Generate Certificate

The KLF-200 uses a self-signed certificate to secure the TLS protocol. This package contains the fingerprint and certificate that I have extracted from my KLF-200.

In case that your connection doesn't work due to a different certificate you have to extract the certificate from your box with the following command:

$ echo -n | openssl s_client -connect <ip adress of your KLF-200>:51200 | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > velux-cert.pem

After extracting the certificate you have to generate the fingerprint with the following command:

$ openssl x509 -noout -fingerprint -sha1 -inform pem -in velux-cert.pem

This will print a fingerprint like 12:34:56:78:9a:bc:de:f0:12:34:56:78:9a:bc:de:f0:12:34:56:78.

See below for a sample usage with user defined certificate data.

Usage

The KLF-200 interface provides a list of connected products and a list of scenarios. The interface is intended to be used with wired switches but there is an official interface that works on sockets to control the connected products.

To work with this module you have to complete the following tasks:

Setup your KLF-200 to work in the interface mode. (See the interface manual on how to do it.)
Setup your products by either copying them from another remote control or by using the search functionality of the KLF-200 interface.
Optional: Setup scenes to control your products in the KLF-200 interface.

Note 1: You no longer need to setup a scene for each desired position. With the new firmware it is possible to control the products directly.

Note 2: If you don't want to use wired switches

          you don't have to use the provided wires.

To use this module with the interface to run a product you have to do the following steps:

Create a Connection object and login with loginAsync.
Create a Products object with createProductsAsync. This will load the registered products from the KLF-200.
Call Product.setTargetPositionAsync to set your product to the desired value.
Close the connection using logoutAsync.

Sample

The following sample code shows how to open the window named 'Window kitchen' to 50%.

import { Connection, Products, Product } from "klf-200-api";

/*
    Use either the IP address or the name of *your* interface
    'velux-klf-12ab' is just a placeholder in this example.
*/
const conn = new Connection('velux-klf-12ab');

/*
    Login with *your* password.
    The default password is the same as the WiFi password
    that is written on back side of the KLF200.
    For security reason you should change it.

    In the following example we assume
    that the password is `velux123`.
*/
await conn.loginAsync('velux123');
try {
    // Read the product's data:
    const myProducts = await Products.createProductsAsync(conn);

    // Find the window by it's name:
    const myKitchenWindow = myProducts.findByName("Window kitchen");
    if (myKitchenWindow) {
        await myKitchenWindow.setTargetPositionAsync(0.5);
    } else {
        throw(new Error("Could not find kitchen window."));
    }
} finally {
    await conn.logoutAsync();
}

If you have to provide your own certificate data use the following code for login:

import { Connection, Products, Product } from "klf-200-api";
import { readFileSync } from "fs";

const myFingerprint = "12:34:56:78:9a:bc:de:f0:12:34:56:78:9a:bc:de:f0:12:34:56:78";
const myCA = readFileSync("velux-cert.pem");

// Connect using your own certificate data:
const conn = new Connection('velux-klf-12ab', myCA, myFingerprint);
...

For some basic usage scenarios you can use the following classes:

Gateway: Represents the KLF-200. E.g. you can enable the house status monitor, change the password or query the current state.
Products and Product: Get a list of the products and control a product, e.g. open a window.
Groups and Group: Get a list of groups and control them, e.g. open all windows of a group together.
Scenes and Scene: Get a list of defined scenes and run a scene. E.g. you can open different windows at different positions.

For other scenarios you may want to send a command directly to the KLF-200. You can do so by using the method Connection.sendFrameAsync. This method handles the command handshake for you already. The Promise that is returned will fulfill when the corresponding confirmation frame is received.

Depending on the request, it can be finished when the confirmation frame is received. With other request, like opening a window, you will receive additional notifications, which will be provided by event handlers to you.
