## Capturing codes
Capturing codes is relatively easy, assuming that the broadlink device
is set up:
```python
import broadlink
import base64
devices = broadlink.discover(timeout=5)
devices[0].auth()
```
For each code, the procedure is as follows:
```python
devices[0].find_rf_packet()
# wait until this returns True
devices[0].check_data()
# this will return the code
```
