My needed timescale for response of an actuator is more likely to be minutes rather than milliseconds (and maybe hours of human time). I put in a test timer. The sender saves the Annex millisecond timer and sends the message with ESP-now. The receiver does a fair amount of processing to see that the message is for itself, actuates the relay, and rebuilds and posts the web page which is the alternate method of setting the relay, and then transmits a response; the sender does a bit of processing on the responding message, and prints the message and the elapsed time. I'm seeing 14-15 milliseconds. I'm sure it would be much faster in C code and optimized for response time (and no web page build). You could also send directly to a specific MAC address rather than broadcast and have each receiver determine if the message is for it. ~ Edited 2024-10-09 09:39 by lizby
