XBee® SX 868 RF Module User Guide
124
Use the ND (Network Discovery) command with this string as an argument to easily identify devices on
the network.
The DN command also uses this identifier.
Parameter range
A string of case-sensitive ASCII printable characters from 1 to 20 bytes in length. The string cannot
start with the space character. A carriage return or a comma automatically ends the command.
Default
One ASCII space character (0x20)
NT (Node Discover Timeout)
This command applies to the XBee SX 868 RF Module.
Sets the amount of time a base node waits for responses from other nodes when using the ND
(Network Discover), DN (Discover Node), and FN (Find Neighbors) commands. When a discovery is
performed, the broadcast transmission includes the NT value to provide all remote devices with a
response timeout. Remote devices wait a random time, less than NT, before sending their response to
avoid collisions.
The N? command should be used to determine how long the actual discovery timeout will be based
on current device configuration.
Parameter range
0x20 - 0x2EE0 (x 100 ms)
Default
0x82 (13 seconds)
NO (Node Discovery Options)
This command applies to the XBee SX 868 RF Module.
Set or read the network discovery options value for the ND (Network Discovery) command on a
particular device. The options bit field value changes the behavior of the ND command and what
optional values the local device returns when it receives an ND command or API Node Identification
Indicator (0x95)frame.
These options also apply to FN (Find Neighbors) command responses.
Parameter range
0x0 - 0x7 (bit field)
Option Description
0x01
Append the DD (Digi Device Identifier) value to ND or FNresponses or API node
identification frames.
0x02
Local device returns own ND response frame when a ND or FNis issued.
0x04
Append the RSSI of the last hop to ND, FN responses or API node identification frames.
