¶ Send Jolt
Category: 🔗 Connectors
¶ Description
Sends a jolt to every matching 'Receive Jolt' (wireless_in_jolt) block in the world without needing a wire. Pair sender and receiver by giving both the same channel name.
Useful for wiring large patches without long wires, or for sending jolts between separated groups/devices. Each wireless channel needs a unique name. Channel ID can be used to subdivide a name into multiple sub-channels (0 sends to all). The 'Send Data' inspector setting restricts where the jolt is delivered (world-wide, current group only, or a selected list of groups).
