pyarcamsolo 0.2.0

Asyncio Python library for controlling Arcam Solo Hi-Fi devices via RS232 ser2net bridge.

Python library for controlling Arcam Solo devices via a serial network bridge (ser2net)

Based on the implementation of aiopioneer

Features

• Implemented in asyncio.
• Maintains single continuous telnet session to ser2net server, reconnecting where required
• Eliminates need to poll as library will decode status messages from the Hi-Fi unit
• Supports power on/off
• Supports changing source
• Supports sending custom IR commands
• Automatically sets the time on startup (if still supported by your software version)

Important notes

• The documentation appears to be different to what is supported on some units, if your software version is 2.7 or lower (you can check in the engineering menu), you will need to use a baudrate of 38400 (8n1).
