    The rinohtype PDF builder I use chokes on right-justified images
    failing to wrap them with the text. It also chokes on the |xxx|
    format hyperlinks to externals that I use for opening in a separate
    tab. Therefore I have html and rinoh conditionals in these docs (typ)

Alpaca Device Server Management
===============================
Provides information about an Alpaca device server found via
:doc:`alpaca.discovery`, and the devices which are provided by
that server. For more information see the |apiref|.

Example using the Management functions::

    svrs = discovery.search_ipv4()
    print(svrs)
    for svr in svrs:
        print(f"At {svr}")
        print (f"  V{management.apiversions(svr)} server")
        print (f"  {management.description(svr)['ServerName']}")
        devs = management.configureddevices(svr)
        for dev in devs:
            print(f"    {dev['DeviceType']}[{dev['DeviceNumber']}]: {dev['DeviceName']}")

Output::
