This module implements a Python client for the Russound I/O (RIO) protocol used to control Russound audio controllers. RIO supports a superset of the RNET feature set, allows for push notifications of system changes and supports TCP/IP and RS232 communication.

The library supports the RIO protocol communication over TCP/IP or RS232 (Serial).
The built-in ethernet port on the Russound device natively support the RIO protocol. Note: It is strongly recommended that the controller has a static IP address configured.
The RS232 port must be configured to use the RIO protocol instead of the RNET protocol for the library to function properly. This can be configured using the SCS-C5 configuration tool or the controller's Web GUI.
This is the continuation of the russound_rio package. This wouldn't be possible without the excellent work from @wickerwaka and @chphilli.
