Collin, Pat, thanks for your replies.

Collin, I will try the route method in a short while...

Pat, that's interesting you use Messenger. I considered it but as I got SMS working quite quickly I've since disregarded it. I will give it a go. Do you mean to apply the identifier at the arduino stage, and if so, what does the code look like? And how does Pd decipher it? I'm sorry, but nothing is obvious to me at this stage - it's all new and I'm trying to make sense of it.

Many thanks

Another thing to consider is if you have large GUI objects that are updating quickly (e.g. number2 with huge fonts). This will also potentially tax the cpu.

hi,

i use Messenger instead of Simple Message System:
http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Code/Messenger

as for sending multiple sensors, just add an identifier:
...
sensor1 789
sensor2 345
...

I've done this a few times adding a char and a space before the value
and sorting it out with a [route]
The char goes in quotes, and don't forget the space!

then in the patch:

[comport 8 9600]

[ascii2pd CR]

[route list]

[route s r]
