Examples

Sending any command will initiate autodiscovery of projector if none is known and will cary on the command. so just go for it and maybe you get lucky:

import pysdcp

my_projector = pysdcp.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)
