devices = CPH.BroadlinkGetDevices()

# Send a learned IR command
CPH.BroadlinkSendCommand("Living Room", "TV Power")

# Learn a new IR/RF command
CPH.BroadlinkLearnCommand("Living Room", "TV Volume Up")

Scene Control

Scene control 
# Execute a Broadlink scene
CPH.BroadlinkExecuteScene("Movie Mode")

# Get available scenes
scenes = CPH.BroadlinkGetScenes()

# Check device status
status = CPH.BroadlinkGetDeviceStatus("Living Room")
