# ESPNOW Example
|
||
|
|
||
|
This example shows how to use ESPNOW of wifi. Example does the following steps:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Start WiFi.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Initialize ESPNOW.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Register ESPNOW sending or receiving callback function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4. Add ESPNOW peer information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
5. Send and receive ESPNOW data.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In order to get the MAC address of the other device, firstly send broadcast ESPNOW data to each other with 'state' set as 0. When receiving
|
||
|
broadcast ESPNOW data with 'state' as 0, add the device from which the data comes to the peer list. Then start sending broadcast ESPNOW
|
||
|
data with 'state' set as 1. When receiving broadcast ESPNOW data with 'state' as 1, compare the local magic number with that in the data.
|
||
|
If the local one is bigger than that one, stop sending broadcast ESPNOW data and start sending unicast ESPNOW data. If receive unicast
|
||
|
ESPNOW data, also stop sending broadcast ESPNOW data. That is what happens in this example. It shows how to send/receive broadcast/unicast
|
||
|
ESPNOW data. In practice, if the MAC address of the other device is known, it's not required to send/receive broadcast ESPNOW data first,
|
||
|
just add the device to the peer list and send/receive unicast ESPNOW data.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are a lot of "extras" on top of ESPNOW data, such as type, state, sequence number, CRC and magic in this example. These "extras" are
|
||
|
not required to use ESPNOW. They are only used to make this example to run correctly. However, it is recommended that users add some "extras"
|
||
|
to make ESPNOW data more safe and more reliable.
|
||
|
|
||
|
*Note:* The two devices can be set as either station or softap or station+softap mode. If the receiving device is in station mode only
|
||
|
and it connects to an AP, modem sleep should be disabled.
