NEC M403H Projector #500

Open bhe2142 opened 3 years ago

bhe2142 commented 3 years ago

Please make companion able to control this NEC projector, Like on, off, AV mute, and etc.

Will be great with instance feedback.

Here is the external control manual: https://www.sharpnecdisplays.eu/p/download/v/4c03145f5bf96550ea0ff24d58416ca5/cp/Products/Projectors/Shared/CommandLists/PDF-ExternalControlManual-english.pdf?fn=ExternalControlManual-english.pdf

+1 for this module request! I've got a number of NEC projectors, model M300WS that should take the name basic commands linked in the manual above.

+1! I would like this to work, to see if someone could know how or give us a cable, the idea would be, for example, with a wemos that acts as a Wi-Fi card, if someone knows how to do it, for example with esphome, it would be very helpful

+1 It would be great to have support for these NEC/Sharp projectors which don't support PJLink. I have a V300W which appears to use the same TCP commands as above.

It also supports Crestron Roomview, although I can't find any documentation on this.

I have attempted to use the Generic TCP Request module in companion, but the projector refuses the connection. I can control the unit from "NaViSet Administrator" and log the TCP messages in Wireshark - the commands appear to be as documented, but I don't understand the protocol enough to translate them into companion.

Many thanks!
