Send data to multiple slaves

[de-Roo.Lukas]

I want to use one master to send data to multiple slaves.

However, in the synker demo, there is a broadcast address, which is the address of slaves.

What should I do if I want to send messages to multiple slaves? can I input multiple addresses in the broadcast input area?

 

Question2: how to use slave to control master?

 

Thanks

Hi Lukas,

in Syncker demo you can specify the broadcast address. By default, it works on the local machine and you can run 1 master and definitely more than one slave.

Usually, you just set up the broadcast address, like 192.168.1.255 and run slaves on machines that connected to the same network. So you don't need to specify multiple addresses. 

More on Syncker options here: https://developer.unigine.com/en/docs/2.7/code/cpp/plugins/syncker/options

Does it work for you?

"slave_name" is used for messages in the console. It does nothing to the Syncker logic. To make things work use sync_view argument - it's a name for display that you can edit in Projections configuration window.

You can use any connected slave to work with Projections configurator I've mentioned above.

Thanks, but my sdk version is 2.6.0.1 there is no Projections configuration window.

Okay, in 2.6 it's different. You'll need to use configuration mesh for this: https://developer.unigine.com/en/docs/2.6/code/cpp/plugins/syncker/

In 2.6.1.1 and 2.7 Syncker got really good improvements. Do you have plans for updating to a new version?
