This is the situation: I need to control via PC about 30 remote sensors & actuators. In the PC side is pretty easy since a can use USB boards to hold a XBee module and start the communication. On the "remote" side I need to find a way to assure that an input command (button pressed, for example) be really transmitted to the central node (PC node) even it needs to wait some time since I have a lot of remotes trying to send and receive information to & from the central node. As far as understood, if I don't "read" the command of remote at the exact time the button was pressed I'll lose this information, since the input status will gone be 0 as soon the user release the button.Could someone help me on this issue?Thanks a lot!

They're a seriously cool piece of kit. I still have the modules and after uni this summer I'm gonna attempt a little home automation with them. Definately worth a play with if you get chance!!!!!!!
