XP Protocol Communication Tools

Project description

🔌 XP Protocol Communication Tool

PyPI version Python package codecov Python 3.10+ License: MIT Checked with mypy

A powerful Python CLI toolkit for CONSON XP Protocol operations

Control and communicate with XP devices through console bus (Conbus), parse telegrams in real-time, and integrate with smart home systems like Apple HomeKit.


✨ Key Features

🚀 Real-time Communication Connect directly to XP130/XP230 servers with bidirectional TCP communication

📡 Smart Telegram Processing Parse and validate event, system, and reply telegrams with built-in checksum verification

🏠 HomeKit Integration Bridge XP devices to Apple HomeKit for seamless smart home control

🔍 Device Discovery Automatically discover XP servers and scan connected modules on your network

Modern Architecture Comprehensive type safety and robust error handling


🚀 Quick Start

# Install with PIP (recommended)
pip install conson-xp

# Upgrade package
pip install --upgrade conson-xp==2.0.5

# Export your Conbus device configuration (recommended first step)
xp conbus export

# Parse a telegram
xp telegram parse "<E14L00I02MAK>"

# Discover XP servers on your network
xp conbus discover

📦 Installation

Using PIP (Recommended)

pip install conson-xp

Development Installation

# Using PDM

git clone <repository-url>

pip install pdm

pdm install -G scripts

📚 Usage

🎯 Core Operations

Telegram Processing

# Parse any telegram (auto-detect type)
xp telegram parse "<E14L00I02MAK>"
xp telegram parse "<S0020012521F02D18FN>"
xp telegram parse "<R0020012521F02D18+26,0§CIL>"

# Validate telegram integrity
xp telegram validate "<E14L00I02MAK>"

Device Communication

⚠️ Important: Bridge modules (XP130, XP230) accept only one TCP connection at a time. Close any existing connections (including the official app) before using xp commands.

# Export device configuration (RECOMMENDED - run this first!)
# Discovers all devices and exports complete configuration to export.yml
xp conbus export

# What it does:
# - Automatically discovers all devices on the Conbus network
# - Queries 7 datapoints per device (type, version, link number, etc.)
# - Generates export.yml in conson.yml format
# - Shows real-time progress for each device
# - Handles timeouts gracefully with partial exports
#
# Example output:
#   Querying device 1/12: 0020041013...
#     ✓ Module type: X130 (1)
#     ✓ Link number: 1
#     ✓ Software version: V2.3
#   Export complete: export.yml (12 devices)

# Discover XP servers on your network
xp conbus discover

# Connect and scan for modules
xp conbus scan <serial_number> <function_code>
xp conbus scan 0123450001 02

# Control device outputs
xp conbus output <action> <serial_number> <ouput_number>
xp conbus output off 0123450001 00
xp conbus output on 0123450001 01
xp conbus output status 0123450001

# Blink device for identification
xp conbus blink <action> <serial_number>
xp conbus blink on 0123450001
xp conbus blink all on
xp conbus blink all off

Module Information

# Get module details
xp module info 14
xp module search "push button"

# List available modules
xp module list --group-by-category

🖥️ Terminal UI (TUI)

Real-time Protocol Monitor

Launch an interactive terminal interface for live protocol monitoring and control:

# Start the protocol monitor TUI
xp term protocol

Features:

  • 📊 Live Telegram Stream: Real-time RX/TX telegram monitoring from Conbus server
  • ⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts: Quick access controls for common operations
    • Q - Quit application
    • C - Toggle connection (connect/disconnect)
    • R - Reset and clear log
    • 0-9, a-q - Send predefined protocol telegrams
  • 🎨 Visual Status Indicators: Color-coded connection states
    • 🟢 Green - Connected
    • 🟡 Yellow - Connecting/Disconnecting
    • 🔴 Red - Failed
    • ⚪ White - Disconnected
  • 📝 Interactive Display: Scrollable telegram log with detailed parsing information

The TUI provides a convenient way to monitor and interact with XP devices without juggling multiple terminal commands.

🔧 Advanced Features

Real-time Operations
# Listen for event telegrams
xp conbus receive

# Send custom telegrams
xp conbus custom <serial_number> <function_code> <action_code>
xp conbus custom 01234500001 02 02

# Read/write datapoints
xp conbus datapoint <datapoint> <serial_number>
xp conbus datapoint hw_version 01234500001
xp conbus datapoint auto_report_status 01234500001
xp conbus datapoint voltage 01234500001
Checksum Operations
