    <p>I hope to use the Multipeer Connectivity framework, and would appreciate any voices of experience on how best to proceed.</p> <p>I need a connection between a "coach" device and up to 45 "player" devices. They will all be in the same space, but no way to predict wifi availability or connection. The coach device needs to send an instruction (a small data packet) to all player devices each second. Each "player" needs to send a reading from a Bluetooth Heartrate monitor (very small data packet) back to the coach each second. Since the maximum peers per session is 8, would any of these ideas work to accommodate the numbers I need?</p> <p>a) The first 7 player devices to establish a connection with the coach advertise a different session type and allow 7 (or would this be 6?) more players to join them. Those first 7 act as a middleman to the other 49 (or 42?) by passing on the instruction from the coach and passing back the collected readings to the coach. A few second lag between instruction and heartrate reading is not preferred, but would be OK. </p> <p>b) The coach device creates and advertises one session. After 7 player devices have connected, the coach device creates another session and repeats for 7 more. Repeat until all player devices are connected to the coach. This seems unlikely to work, but without understanding the magic that is Multipeer Connectivity, it was an option that came to mind. </p> <p>c) The coach establishes a session with player device one, which connects to device 2... in a daisy chain topography. When each device recieves the instruction, it adds it's own reading to the data packet and sends it on. The last device returns the entire packet to the coach. I can't predict how long it would take for a round of data, and it also seems troublesome if one device leaves the group. </p> <p>Any advice or voices of experience in using Multipeer Connection Framework for 45 or so devices would be appreciated.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
