Panasonic EX800Z not connecting #40

Open DrEVILish opened 5 months ago

DrEVILish commented 5 months ago

Unable to send commands to EX800Z

Companion Logs give responses of:

debug: Use feedback: yes debug: socket connect error: Received error: Undefined control command

I would suspect this isn't an issue with this module specifically but the "ntcontrol" package this module references.

https://www.projectorcentral.com/pdf/projector_manual_7960.pdf page 140, lists "ERR1" : "Undefinded control command"

The manual lists that this should be the NTCONTROL package.

Typing the wrong password correctly returns "error: Authentication failed. Invalid credentials."

Also somewhat confused as the public: https://github.com/peschuster/ntcontrol-connection references ntcontrol-connection as v0.3.1

Whereas the package that's pulled and bundled with this module is v0.4.0

As a work around for the EX800Z series of projectors

Functions as a good alternative although a number of functions are missing.
