Hi, Matt! I found your question while searching for exactly the same thing. I had wired up buttons in a text controller to send "stop", "play", and "record" for basic operation. They weren't working, so I turned to the internet and got it to work.
Make sure you add the line ending to your commands. I added "\r\n" to the end of each to be as much like what the HyperDeck would get from a telnet session as possible, but only the "\n" is required. (The "\r" on its own doesn't trigger it. Ending with "\n" and "\r\n" does.)
Hope that helps!
P.S. I figured it out watching Introduction to the HyperDeck Control Protocol on the developer page (can't post a link) at about 1:50 when he says it's a "text-based protocol".
