Network and security commands
The following commands affect the 802.15.4 network.
CH (Operating Channel)
Set or read the operating channel devices used to transmit and receive data.
In order for devices to communicate with each other, they must share the same channel number. A
network can use different channels to prevent devices in one network from listening to the
transmissions of another and to reduce interference.
The command uses IEEE 802.15.4 channel numbers.
Parameter range
0xB - 0x1A
Default
0xC (channel 12)
ID (Extended PAN ID)
Set or read the user network identifier.
Devices must have the same network identifier to communicate with each other.
Devices can only communicate with other devices that have the same network identifier and channel
configured.
Setting
ID
to
0xFFFF
indicates a global transmission for all PANs. It does not indicate a global receive.
Parameter range
0 - 0xFFFF
Default
0x3332
C8 (Compatibility Options)
Sets or displays the operational compatibility with the legacy 802.15.4 device (S1 hardware). This
parameter should only be set when operating in a mixed network that contains XBee Series 1 devices.
Parameter range
0 - 3
