Can I send a heartbeat from the repeater node like this,
unsigned long lastHeartbeat = 0; #define HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL 3600000 void loop() { if (millis() - lastHeartbeat > HEARTBEAT_INTERVAL) { ... PING .... lastHeartbeat = millis(); } }and will the status leds work on a repeater node?
I thought I ask first before spending time making the modifications.

How should i include the heartbeat function in this sketch? (or any other)

What is the purpose of the -"heartbeat " you are using? In the development branch there is also a special implementation of a heartbeat service.
One other observation in your code: you are constraining and converting a lot between percentages an byte values. Converting only where needed (when communicating with the controller) and using the "map" function makes the code more straightforward.
Nice reading and examples for color manipulation can be found with the Fastled library also. -

I need the heartbeat because i use the RPi gateway with the NRF24 chip directly connected to the RPi, and the gateway software for the raspberry dont store the network map so if i reboot the RPi the nodes loose connection to the gateway.
