Let me know when you have successfully installed the ESP-NOW library.

@robotbuilder

John,

I seem to be having problems installing the correct ESP-NOW library into the Arduino IDE.

Which is the correct one I should be looking for when searching?

When I search for "esp-now", the only one that is close to that is called "ESP_NOW_Network".  I cannot find one that's just called "ESP-NOW".

After a Google search and looking on Arduino.cc, there is reference to the "SimpleEspNowConnection" library.  Will this one work?

Cheers,

Ian

 

It's built in, no library is needed for ESP_NOW.

Sorry for the run around with thinking you had to install the ESP NOW.

You will however need to install a servo library for the next step.

I just followed Bill's tutorial.

I will continue the project solutions and discussions back in your original topic.

@robotbuilder @imillard Just an FYI hopefully others will see. Here are all the references to python for a simple blink sketch on an esp32 board. Python is more than just a source code language, and is used by the IDE for certain situations. Here are all the references to py. Some are off screen but I think you get the idea.

@robotbuilder, @zander

Thanks guys for the clarification on ESP-NOW.

The code compiled OK and uploaded fine to the boards.  It appears I now have my two boards talking to each other.

Cheers,

Ian
