this one looks also nice : https://github.com/Deejayfool/hass-shutter-card
yes, Iâve tried this, but it doesnât automatically scale and the skeuomorphic design may clash with other cards visually.
The vertical slider cover card can be used for shutters, blinds, windows, etc. And I had a few emails with the developer - he is very kind and made some quick improvements based on my suggestions 
Thatâs also important indeed
Hi
I just received my KLF 200 and I donât manage do make it work. I have the error above in logs.
Do you have some idea to help me ?

Did you try to power cycle the KLF200?
My velux are going to be installed in next weekâs, do you always need to restart the klf if you restart HA? Cause of the limited time out connections?
no always, but sometimes you need.
I solved adding a cheap sonoff basic with which I can eventually power-cycle remotely the KLF200
Ok, I also have a spare zigbee switch
But is it needed cause of restart HA? Or just at random times? Cause I want automations for at night to open the velux and close in morningâŚ
If itâs random , then I going to make a script to power cycle that switch every nightâŚ
Also , if you power cycle the klf, do you need to restart HA also?
Also, last question, do I also need the kux110 option if I bought the klf 200?
I found this here, and he described that you also need the kux110 if you buy a klf 200
Edit: nm, seems its for shutters, mine are connected to the Integra electrical windows, so donât need the kux110
The good news, is that HA connected successfully to your KLF200.
My guess, looking at your LOGs and the API document, is that the KLF200 is reporting to HA about the devices the KLF200 controls and HA doesnât know about these devices; or perhaps the KLF is reporting that it has 0 devices it controls. When you go into the KLFâs Web GUI, do you see any devices?
Ciao Fabio,
It is needed to power cycle klf200 random timesâŚsay 1 time every 10 you restart HA.
It mostly happen when you update HA actually which could be due to a not clean disconnections from klf200
Once HA is started and connected it is rock solid: I have quite few automations on Velux (Windows, covers, shadesâŚ) and they work beautifully
Ok, thx for info⌠Do you have somekind of sensor so you can actually see if klf is connected or not?.. So you can send somekind of notification⌠That way I can do an automation to power cycle the klfâŚ
Or can you only see it in log files and restart HA?
I tried to unplug/replug it many times yes.
Hi,
I added 2 (garage door and a velux cover) before trying to connect the KLF200 to HA.
I have 4 devices in the KLFâs web GUI (1 cover, 1 garage door, 1 light associated to door and 1 on/off switch that seems to be the same than the light).
I took a glanced at the pyvlx.py code (which is what HA uses) along with your log.
The log says ValueError: 378 is not a valid NodeTypeWithSubtype
378 is x17A in hex. The API doc for that type says the following:
0x017A Linear or angular position of the garage door
The code NodeTypewithSubtype() itself has a list of âenumâ items that it supports, and 0x017A is not in the list. There is however one that is close to it: LINAR_ANGULAR_POSITION_OF_GARAGE_DOOR = 0x140
To me this is a hint that the code actually supports a garage door similar to yours.
My recommendation would be to send the author of the pyvlyx.py code an email to see if he can add the 0x017A to the list.
Here is the project page, and at the bottom youâll see the authorâs contact.
If you know how to get to the code, it would be an easy change the 0x140 to an 0x17A, then just try it out.
See this interesting reply :
Hi @wmaker,
Thank you for your answer. I will open an issue on pyvlx github.
I not a python guy but Iâm a developer. I can try some things directly in pyvlyx.py but I donât find it 
I canât access /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pyvlx/nodes.py through ssh. python3.7 is not in /usr/local/lib/ folder.
Do you have any hint about it ?
I will also try to remove the garage door and just make sure the velux cover work.
Iâve only started playing around with Hassio recently as I mainly use HA Core.
I did manage to sorta hack into Hassio. Here is what I did:
Youâll want to get to the systemâs âmain hassOS consoleâ (rather than the SSH addon). The âmain hassOS consoleâ gets you a login prompt (username root, no password), which gets you access to HA CLI, then enter âloginâ which will get you to a linux shell.
You will know you are at the right place if you enter $docker ps and you see a docker container named homeassistant.
Next enter $ docker exec -it homeassistant /bin/sh This will get you to a shell inside the homeassistant docker container. From here you should be able to get to the pyvlx files. Just be careful, as youâre inside a docker container. Make sure to make a backup of the file youâre modifying. Good Luck!
Guys, me velux were installed today
i have 2 windows (integra electrical)and also 2 sun protectors outside
some questions about setup for klf200 , i have it working though in HA , but i am not sure about setup
at the moment, the integra windows, the motor is not installed yet, so i am starting with the 2 sun protectors (electrical)
the left sun protector i have configured at input nr 3
the right sunprotector i have configured at input nr 4
questions
1)
according to manual , you need to configure a set of inputs?
so input 1 is for opening, input 2 for closing? but thats not needed? we only need 1 input for 1 sun protector? i have just followed manual, i press the reset button on my wall switch, i press the reset button on KLF ⌠done
in HA, i can see my 2 covers created, and i can open / close them seperately
also second, the inputs with blue wires ⌠do we need to configure them also? according to manual its ro receive the state ⌠but i can see the state perfectly in HA if i close/open my sun protectors?
