ESPNOW Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
This example shows how to use ESPNOW of wifi. Example does the following steps:
- Start WiFi.
- Initialize ESPNOW.
- Register ESPNOW sending or receiving callback function.
- Add ESPNOW peer information.
- Send and receive ESPNOW data.
This example need at least two ESP devices:
- In order to get the MAC address of the other device, Device1 firstly send broadcast ESPNOW data with 'state' set as 0.
- When Device2 receiving broadcast ESPNOW data from Device1 with 'state' as 0, adds Device1 into the peer list. Then start sending broadcast ESPNOW data with 'state' set as 1.
- When Device1 receiving broadcast ESPNOW data with 'state' as 1, compares the local magic number with that in the data. If the local one is bigger than that one, stop sending broadcast ESPNOW data and starts sending unicast ESPNOW data to Device2.
- If Device2 receives unicast ESPNOW data, also stop sending broadcast 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 into 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.
How to use example
Configure the project
make menuconfig
- Set serial port under Serial Flasher Options.
- Set WiFi mode (station or SoftAP) under Example Configuration Options.
- Set ESPNOW primary master key under Example Configuration Options. This parameter must be set to the same value for sending and recving devices.
- Set ESPNOW local master key under Example Configuration Options. This parameter must be set to the same value for sending and recving devices.
- Set Channel under Example Configuration Options. The sending device and the recving device must be on the same channel.
- Set Send count and Send delay under Example Configuration Options.
- Set Send len under Example Configuration Options.
- Set Enable Long Range Options. When this parameter is enabled, the ESP32 device will send data at the PHY rate of 512Kbps or 256Kbps then the data can be transmitted over long range between two ESP32 devices.
Build and Flash
Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:
make -j4 flash monitor
(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-]
.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.

Troubleshooting
If ESPNOW data can not be received from another device, maybe the two devices are not on the same channel or the primary key and local key are different.
In real application, if the receiving device is in station mode only and it connects to an AP, modem sleep should be disabled. Otherwise, it may fail to revceive ESPNOW data from other devices.
