I have written a small experimental GUI application to control my Devialet 120, using VS2013 Express on a MacMini running 64-bit Win8.1 (trying to insert as attachment here...)
It seems there is little or no interest in RS232 control, which surprises me because unless Devialet reveal their TCP/IP Command format, it's the only avenue for automatically switching between Inputs when the amp is part of an A/V setup.
It also ends my frustration at not being able to see the amp's display from my sofa.
If anyone is interested in trying it, I'd appreciate advice on where to put the executable. I don't normally write Windows software, I'm an embedded software engineer by trade. Note that you'll have to make up a 3.5mm connector as indicated in Devialet's RS232 PDF instructions, and probably buy a USB-to-Serial adapter too.
