I’m getting more and more requests to implement network control for my Home Assistant BenQ Projector integration. The network control of the BenQ projectors seems to be just a telnet connection running on TCP/IP port 8000 and the same commands as used over the serial connection should work over the network connection. This shouldn’t be to difficult to implement. However I don’t own a network connected projector and have thus not implemented any network functionality, yet. A simple RS-232 to WiFi module and some software should be enough to simulate the existence of a network connection on my projector.
