Modulating on/off instead of having it constantly on?

Hey there,

Thank you so much for providing this script, it works perfectly for me! So much so that I want to expand my usage of it to control a mister system. The only complication is that instead of having the "/LED=ON" request causing the relay to stay on permanently, I would love it if it were possible to modulate the relay on for 3 seconds then off for 5 and to repeat this forever until it receives the "/LED=OFF" request. The problem is that; a) I have very little experience programming for Arduinos and b) despite this, I realise that instead of simply having digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); to be the command that is run when the script is requested to turn on, it should instead be something like:

digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
delay(3000);
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
delay(5000);

But in a loop, this is where my knowledge of Arduino IDE programming reaches its limits. The two problems I am unable to overcome are:

1. How would I loop this command for an infinite number of times?

2. How could you stop this loop and simply do digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); when the "/LED=OFF" request is made?

I would really appreciate it if you could help me out as I have been unable to find any similar situations online and my distinct lack of Arduino programming means that I have been unable to solve this myself.

Thank you in advance for any assistance,

Kind regards,
Tom

Connect more than 1 relay.

Hey thanks for the awesome code. Just wanted to know if it is possible to connect more than one relay. Cheers 🍻
