pyjvcprojector

A python library for controlling a JVC Projector over a network connection.

https://pypi.org/project/pyjvcprojector/

Forked from https://github.com/SteveEasley/pyjvcprojector

Features

A full reference to the available commands is available from JVC here http://pro.jvc.com/pro/attributes/PRESENT/Manual/External%20Command%20Spec%20for%20D-ILA%20projector_V3.0.pdf.

Commands

• JvcCommandHelpers.get_available_commands() return an object containing all available commands.
• JvcCommandHelpers.get_command_help("picture_mode") return human readable help for a given command.

Convenience functions:

• JvcProjector::power_on() turns on power.
• JvcProjector::power_off() turns off power.
• JvcProjector::get_power() gets power state (standby, on, cooling, warming, error)
• JvcProjector::is_on() returns True if the power is on and ready
• JvcProjector::get_input() get current input (hdmi1, hdmi2).
• JvcProjector::get_signal() get signal state (signal, nosignal).
• JvcProjector::get_state() returns {power, input, signal}.
• JvcProjector::get_info() returns {model, mac address}.

Send supported commands

• JvcProjector::send_command(cmd, val) where cmd is a top level key from JvcCommandHelpers.get_available_commands() such as laser_power and val is a valid option found in the values key. For example, clear_motion_drive, low.

Send remote control codes

A wrapper for calling JvcProjector::op(f"RC{code}")

• JvcProjector::remote(code) sends remote control command.

Send raw command codes

• JvcProjector::ref(code) sends reference commands to read data. code is formatted f"{cmd}".
• JvcProjector::op(code) sends operation commands to write data. code is formatted f"{cmd}{val}".

Installation

pip install pyjvcprojector

Usage

import asyncio

from jvcprojector.projector import JvcProjector
from jvcprojector import const


async def main():
    jp = JvcProjector("127.0.0.1")
    await jp.connect()

    print("Projector info:")
    print(await jp.get_info())

    if not await jp.is_on():
        await jp.power_on()
        print("Waiting for projector to warmup...")
        while not await jp.is_on():
            await asyncio.sleep(3)

    print("Current state:")
    print(await jp.get_state())

    #
    # Example sending remote code
    #
    print("Showing info window")
    await jp.remote(const.REMOTE_INFO)
    await asyncio.sleep(5)

    print("Hiding info window")
    await jp.remote(const.REMOTE_BACK)

    #
    # Example sending reference command (reads value from function)
    #
    print("Picture mode info:")
    print(await jp.ref("PMPM"))

    #
    # Example sending operation command
    #
    await jp.send_command(const.CMD_PICTURE_MODE_LASER_POWER, const.VAL_LASER_POWER[1])

    await jp.disconnect()

Password authentication is also supported for both older and newer models.
