Sorry, not sure if understand what you intend to do. Do you want that this custom component run in parallel to the native velux component?

Once installed via HACS you have to restart and to configure velux integration within Home Assistant. If native velux integration was already configured, after restart the custom component will block the native velux component and take their configuration details. If no velux integration was configured till now, then you have to do it. Go to integration page and search for velux integration. Add the password for your KLF200 and then you should be able to use it. If you have a new KLF200 device where your devices need to be connected to, please use the KLF WiFi Access point which enables for a few minutes after you supply your KLF 200 with power. Follow the instructions of velux manual to setup your KLF200. Afterwards you can use it with either the native velux component or this custom one (this custom provides more functions which hopefully I manage in a neat future to merge into native component).

we can close here. Sorry for my bad description. I got it running after uninstall custom reboot and configure native reboot and install custom reboot. Then everything is in custom -> perfect
