Haukcode.KiNet
A modern .NET library for controlling Philips/Signify Color Kinetics lighting systems using the KiNet protocol (v1 and v2).
Quick Start
using Haukcode.KiNet;
using System.Net;
// Create a KiNet client
var network = Haukcode.Network.Utils.GetFirstBindAddress();
using var client = new KiNetClient(network.IPAddress, network.NetMask);
// Send DMX data (KiNet v1)
byte[] dmxData = new byte[512];
dmxData[0] = 255; // Red
dmxData[1] = 128; // Green
dmxData[2] = 0; // Blue
await client.SendDmxData(
address: IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.100"),
universeId: 1,
dmxData: dmxData,
protocolVersion: 1
);
// Broadcast to all devices
await client.SendDmxData(null, 1, dmxData, protocolVersion: 2);
// Synchronize devices
await client.SendSync(null);
Features
- KiNet v1 & v2 - DMXOUT and PORTOUT protocol support
- Device Discovery - Find Color Kinetics power supplies and fixtures
- Sync Support - Coordinate timing across multiple devices
- High Performance - Efficient UDP communication
- .NET 8, 9, 10 - Modern multi-target support
Compatibility
Tested with PDS-150e (v1) and sPDS-60ca (v1/v2). Compatible with all Color Kinetics devices supporting the KiNet protocol.

# Changelog
The package version is major.minor from version.json plus the CI run number, so
every push to main publishes a new patch version. Breaking changes bump the
major version.
## 1.0
- The package embeds its PDB with SourceLink, so the debugger can step into
the library source (1.0.63 and later).
- Performance: sending sharded by universe and no per-packet allocations on
the send path.
- A send-immediately method.
- .NET 8, .NET 9 and .NET 10 support.
- Rewritten on the shared Haukcode.HighPerfComm client.
- 1.0.0 - Initial release
