Notes

Protocol uses 24-byte fixed frames: 0x2A 0x53 (header *S) + 1 byte type (C/E/A/N) + 4 ASCII command bytes (FourCC) + 16 ASCII parameter bytes (right-padded with 0 for control values, # for string parameters) + 0x0A (LF footer). Source example power-off request: *SCPOWR0000000000000000; example response: *SAPOWR0000000000000000 *SNPOWR0000000000000000 (SA* = accept, SN* = current state notify). Volume values are 16-digit decimals, left-padded with 0 (e.g. volume 41 hex = decimal 41 encoded as 0000000000000029). IR commands via setIrccCode use 2-digit decimal codes (e.g. Display=05, Home=06, VolumeUp=30, Mute=32, TVPower=98, HDMI1=124); full IR code table is in the source. EU-area KDLW700 models ship in 3 RED-DA compliance variants; available commands and settings differ per variant (see https://pro-bravia.sony.net/setup/device-settings/red-da/). getBroadcastAddress and getMacAddress carry a * footnote in source restricting them to EU models. Required monitor settings: Settings -> Network & Internet -> Remote device settings -> Control remotely; and Settings -> Network & Internet -> Home network -> IP control -> Simple IP control. Both wired and wireless LAN supported.
