Networking commands
This section lists the AT commands that are used during a form and join attempt.
Note Any changes you make to this section will cause the device to leave and rejoin or form a new
network.
CE (Device Role)
Determines whether the device should form or join a network.
When forming a network, the device acts as a Zigbee network coordinator it is unless using a
distributed trust center security model (EO bit 1 is not set) where it forms the network as a route.
Parameter range
0 - 1
Value Description
0 Join Network
1
Form Network (SM must be 0 to set CE to 1)
Default
0
ID (Extended PAN ID)
The preconfigured Extended PAN ID used when forming or joining a network.
ID restricts joining to only networks with a matching OP value. If ID is set to 0, the device attempt to
join any open network.
When forming a network (CE=1), ID preconfigures the Extended PAN ID used to form the network.
When you set ID to 0, a random Extended PAN ID is generated.
Parameter range
0 - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Default
0
II (Initial 16-bit PAN ID)
The preconfigured 16-bit PAN ID used when forming a network. Use this command to replace a
coordinator node on an existing network.
When you set II to the default value (recommended) the module forms a network on a random 16-bit
PAN ID.
Range
0 - 0xFFFF
