In a simple master/slave channel design, we have a master and multiple slaves. It appears that the master must be turned on while slaves connect to it. I've seen cases when the master is turned on while the slaves are already active and they don't exchange info. When slaves are powered off, they begin receiving data from the master (a steady 1s ping). How do you deal with such a situation? We have no control over when a user turns on or off the master or slave device in our application.

Hello, I faced this problem once time. I used a discovery mechanism to allow the master to detect when a new slave is available or when an existing slave is disconnected. For example, some protocols use broadcast messages or polling techniques to achieve this. You can try it.      

Coping with challenging situations requires resilience, patience, and the right strategies. First, take a step back to assess the situation objectively. Identifying the core issue is crucial in finding a solution. Seeking support from friends, family, or professionals can make a significant difference. If you're dealing with something as complex as autism, for example, understanding and knowledge are key.
