Sony KDAG8 Series Control Spec

Summary

BRAVIA Professional Displays KDAG8 Series monitor controlled over TCP via Sony's SSIP (Simple IP Control) protocol on port 20060. Messages are fixed 24-byte frames using 4-character command mnemonics. Source includes power, volume, mute, input, picture mute, scene setting, IR passthrough, and broadcast/MAC address queries.

Transport

protocols:
  - tcp
addressing:
  port: 20060
auth:
  type: none  # inferred: no auth procedure in source

Traits

- powerable   # inferred: setPowerStatus, getPowerStatus, togglePowerStatus
- routable    # inferred: setInput, getInput
- queryable   # inferred: getPowerStatus, getAudioVolume, getAudioMute, getInput, getPictureMute, getSceneSetting, getBroadcastAddress, getMacAddress
- levelable   # inferred: setAudioVolume, getAudioVolume

# UNRESOLVED: source contains no safety warnings, interlock procedures, or power-on sequencing requirements.

Notes

Protocol uses fixed 24-byte ASCII frames: *S header (0x2A 0x53) + msgType (C/E/A/N) + 4-char FourCC + 16-byte params + LF (0x0A) footer. Control messages use 'C', queries use 'E', replies use 'A', unsolicited notifications use 'N'. Successful 'A' replies pad params with '0', errors with 'F' (hex F = 0x46). Source notes EU-area models have 3 RED-DA compliance variants; command availability may differ per variant. Monitor must have "Control remotely" and "Simple IP control" enabled in network settings before TCP port 20060 accepts connections.
