    # Establish a connection
    await receiver.connect()

    # Query the receiver's current state
    await receiver.query_state()

    print(f"Power: {receiver.state.power}")
    print(f"Volume: {receiver.state.volume}")
    print(f"Source: {receiver.state.source_name}")

    await receiver.power_off()
    await receiver.disconnect()

asyncio.run(main())
