Triggering TimeSync to end devices

Modbus4J works with broadcast, Mango not. Am I right?

There are several options presented in thread. If you don't feel comfortable with the C++ or looking at the Mango code, as stated earlier you ca create an event to write to each of the registers in your arduiono with a UNIX epoch timestamp from Mango.

Yes. Send time to every slave is the way I was using in the pass. I was wandering a better way to do it.

It gets difficult if you don't feel comfortable changing the modus C++ code on the arduino side. The code is easy to follow and change.

have you made the changes in the arduino library?

yes but not for those you want. If I get a chance I implement the change I suggested, but don't have much in terms of cycles so can't give a time.

Don't worry. Sure you are faster than my C++ skills
