• VPL-VW270
• VPL-VW285
• VPL-VW315
• VPL-VW320

• VPL-VW365
• VPL-VW515
• VPL-VW520
• VPL-VW528
• VPL-VW665
• VPL-XW6100

Installation

pip install pysdcp-extended

Examples

Sending any command will initiate auto discovery of the projector if none is known and will carry on the command. So just go for it and maybe you get lucky

import pysdcp_extended

my_projector = pysdcp_extended.Projector()

my_projector.get_power()
my_projector.set_power(True)

Skip discovery to save time or if you know the IP of the projector

my_known_projector = pysdcp.Projector('10.1.2.3')
my_known_projector.set_HDMI_input(2)

You can also set a custom PJ Talk community and tcp/udp port. By default "SONY" will be used as the community and 53862 as udp port for SDAP advertisement and 53484 as tcp port for SDCP

my_known_projector = pysdcp.Projector(ip='10.1.2.3', community="THEATER", udp_port=53860, tcp_port=53480)

Commands from protocol.py

While you can use the build in functions like get_power() or set_HDMI_input() you can also directly send any command from protocol.py like this If you need to use more commands, just add to protocol.py, and send it like this:

from pysdcp_extended.protocol.py import *

my_projector._send_command(action=ACTIONS["SET"], command=COMMANDS_IR["CURSOR_UP"])

Please note that commands in COMMANDS_IR work as fire and forget and you only get a response if there is a timeout.
