DELL Display and Peripheral Manager 2.0 CLI for MacOS

DDPM2.0.md

Dell Display and Peripheral Manager 2.0 Command Line

All available Commands found in the CLI.

Whole Command looks like this:

/Applications/DDPM/DDPM.app/Contents/MacOS/DDPM /set -display=ActiveInputSource -value=USB-C Write commands can be prefixed with int:command to specify which monitor to send the command to.

If you want to controll your Display through shortcuts I'd suggest writing a .command script and having it on your Desktop or putting it into a Stream Deck, my .command files look like this:

#! /bin/bash
Clear
/Applications/DDPM/DDPM.app/Contents/MacOS/DDPM /set -display=ActiveInputSource -value=USB-C
Exit

Everything was tested on a LG u4924dw and Macbook Pro running mac OS 15.6. DDPM Version: 2.0.0.0018 DELL u4924dw Firmware Version: M2B105

Quick Info: these commands need Admin access to run and cannot be executed by a normal User, if you've found any solutions to this issue I'd really appreaciate it!
