Overvis Connect Protocol Documentation

Basic Protocol Document status: Approved (2020-02-01) Data Exchange Procedure Overvis Connect is a client-server protocol. The device is always the server, the application is the client. The client sends requests, the server responds. The connection initiator can be either party. When the server (device) initiates a connection, it’s called “backward” connection—useful for bypassing firewalls when multiple devices connect to one cloud application. Usually, the first request is 0000 Handshake to get device type/version and supported extensions. If there’s no exchange for a period, the server terminates the connection. To prevent this, the client must regularly send 0001 Keep Alive or other commands. The timeout is transmitted in the Handshake response (KA field). The server must respond within 10 seconds, otherwise the client may terminate or repeat the request. Request and Response Format <TID> <PID> <LEN> <CMD> <DATA> Fields are coded Big Endian (most significant byte first). Field Length Description TID 2 bytes Transaction number PID 2 bytes Protocol ID, always 0x3900 LEN 2 bytes Package length (excluding TID, PID, LEN) CMD 2 bytes Command code DATA LEN - 2 Data field Maximum packet length is 65535 bytes, but devices may set smaller limits via FLIM field in Handshake response. Error Response <TID> 3900 0004 <ECMD> <ERROR> Where ECMD is the command code with MSB set (<CMD> + 0x8000) and ERROR is 2-byte error code. Common Error Codes Code Description 0001 Unknown error 0002 Device I/O error 0003 Device busy (try again later) 0004 Invalid LEN field 0005 Unknown command 0006 Invalid DATA field 0007 No access rights Commands 0000 Handshake Request meta-information about the device. Request: <TID> 3900 0002 0000 Response: <TID> 3900 <LEN> 0000 <IC> <HW> <FW> <FLIM> <KA> [<EXT> ...] Field Length Description IC 2 bytes Device type category (manufacturer ID) HW 2 bytes Hardware type (LSB decimal = AO version) FW 4 bytes Firmware version (MSB 2 bytes = version type) FLIM 2 bytes Max packet length in bytes KA 2 bytes Keep-alive timeout in seconds EXT 2 bytes Supported extension codes (0 or more) 0001 Keep Alive Maintain connection when no other requests are needed.

EXT0001: Device Parameters Extension dependencies: none Document status: Approved (2020-02-01) This extension describes reading and setting device parameters (setpoints/settings). Parameters are stored in persistent memory. To optimize work with many records and eliminate intermediate states, the extension supports transactions—changes are saved in RAM first, then written to permanent memory when the transaction completes. Commands 0002 Read Parameters Read a block of parameters from persistent memory. Request: <TID> 3900 <LEN> 0002 <SOURCE> [( <OFFSET> <BLOCKLEN> ) ...] If OFFSET and BLOCKLEN are not specified, returns maximum data without offset. Multiple pairs can be specified for multiple blocks in response. Response: <TID> 3900 <LEN> 0002 (<BLOCKDATA>) ...

When initialized, the device allocates RAM for the parameter structure and copies from permanent memory. Changes accumulate in RAM. Device keeps the structure for at least 10 seconds. On transaction completion (TRCON = 2), changes are written to permanent memory. Request: <TID> 3900 <LEN> 0003 <SOURCE> <TRCON> [( <OFFSET> <BLOCKLEN> <BLOCKDATA> ) ...] Response: <TID> 3900 0002 0003 Field Length Description SOURCE 1 byte Data source TRCON 1 byte Transaction control: 0=start new, 1=continue, 2=commit OFFSET 2 bytes Offset in parameter structure BLOCKLEN 2 bytes Block length BLOCKDATA BLOCKLEN Parameter block bytes Errors: Code Description 0010 Incorrect SOURCE 0011 Writing out of bounds 0012 ROM write error 0013 ROM resource expired 0014 RAM error (can’t allocate) 0015 Transaction aborted by another connection 0016 Transaction timeout 0017 Attempting to continue completed transaction

EXT0007: Sensitive Information Check Extension dependencies: none Document status: Approved (2020-02-01) This extension validates a value known to the server for the client (e.g., a password). Returns boolean—valid or not. No device state changes occur. Useful when application and device trust each other but application doesn’t trust user. Example: user proves physical possession of device by entering a code displayed on device. No brute-force protection needed on device side due to state immutability requirement.

EXT000C: Shared Secret Authentication Extension dependencies: EXT0008 Document status: Approved (2020-02-01) Two-way authentication using 256-bit secret key known to application. Device must have unique UID for application to find its key. Limitation: Application stores all secret keys in clear text. Compromised application list affects all devices; keys cannot be changed on sold devices. See EXT0011 for more secure alternative. Commands 0016 Device-Server Shared Secret Authentication Client generates two random sequences, sends them with hash of first sequence + secret key. Device verifies, responds with hash of second sequence + secret key. For each connection, client is unauthenticated with minimum rights (commands 0000, 0001, 0012, 0016, encryption setup).

EXT0010: Encrypted Gamma Extension dependencies: none Document status: Approved (2020-02-01) Full encryption using Gamma algorithm with single key buffer. Algorithm Uses 40-byte key, encrypts in 16-byte blocks. For each block: Calculate SHA-1 hash of key (use first 16 bytes) After each block, new key = SHA-1 hash (20 bytes) + data block before encryption (16 bytes) + next block number (4 bytes) Block encryption (16 bytes): Permutation: For each byte 0-15 of key hash, split into tetrads (nibbles). Swap high tetrad of data block (at hash high nibble index) with high tetrad of next byte (at hash byte index). Same for low tetrad. XOR: Bitwise XOR of key hash with permutation result. Key for block 0: SHA-1 hash of key #1 (20 bytes) + key #2 (16 bytes) + block number zeros (4 bytes). Decryption reverses: XOR first, then reverse permutation. Commands 0018 Send Encrypted Request Same structure as EXT000E. Devices return error 0006 for non-wrapped commands except Handshake, KeepAlive, and encryption setup.
