Multiple Discovery Responses
If the first responder can start its response right at the 176uS Min time from Table 3-4 and transmit the response with a 0S inter-slot time this will take 1.1mS. If the second responder can start its response immediately after the first response and transmit with no inter-slot delay the second response will end 2.376mS after the controllers EOP. A third responder can not respond because it would have to start its response after the 2mS Max time. I don't know if there are any controllers that could handle 2 discovery responses returned to one discovery request.
