How do I get two 2.4g mBots to communicate w/ send and receive message

#1

I want two mBot (2.4g wireless) to communicate with each other. For example I have one mBot using the “send mBot’s massage” block to send the letter “H”…I have another mBot listening for the letter “H” using the “mBot’s message received” block. Once received I just want the 2nd mBot to turn on an LED or the motor for now.

I think you’ll likely have to use the IR Transmitter/Receiver. The 2.4g WiFi dongles appear to be individually keyed to sync to a single robot (I tried with a couple of mBots). I seem to remember Pioneer Chen saying something about that was to enable multiple mBots to be used at the same time without interfering with each other. Also, I was unable to get the IR Transmitter/Receiver to work with mBlock 2.x, but it seems to be working with mBlock 3.x.
