Issues with Velux KLF200 since 2022.6.3

Third party integrations
21

No problem to run my KLF 200 with 3 velux under HA 2022.10.5.
Is yr KLF200 running ok? I had a small problem with mine, dead…no light… a small workshop found 2 or 3 condensators out of order… they said it’s typical for this equipment…

22

No, until yet no hardware problem with my KLF200.

23

Today, did a major upgrade to Raspberry Pi 4 and:
Home Assistant 2022.12.8
Supervisor 2022.12.1
Operating System 9.4

Velux is running smoothly here.

I have this problem, probably after udating HA. how can I downgrade ?

25

This is the problem with the KLF200 that has always existed, so I would be surprised that its an upgrade issue.

27

changed the IP, and changed to a fixed IP adres. now it is ok

29

so what is the solution ?

30

Unfortunately, there is no good solution that I know of. The work-around that many Velux users have done is to create an automation that sends a reboot message to the KLF when HA gets shutdown. This apparently helps but it is not a cure. The other work-around is to use a “smart switch” to power cycle the KLF remotely.

Thanks for the work around. I’ll search for the code…

Here is a copy of the one I use:

  - platform: homeassistant
    event: shutdown
condition: []
action:
