If you use this option when transmitting data, when a MAC acknowledgment failure occurs on one of
the hops to the destination device, the device generates a Route Information Packet (0x8D) frame and
sends it to the originator of the unicast.
This information is useful because it allows you to identify and repair marginal links.
Commissioning pushbutton and associate LED
XBee devices support a set of commissioning pushbutton and LED behaviors to aid in device
deployment and commissioning. These include the commissioning push button definitions and
associate LED behaviors. The following features can be supported in hardware:
TH RF Module
A pushbutton and an LED can be connected to the XBee SX 868 RF Module pins 33 and 28 (SMT), or
pins 20 and 15 (TH) respectively to support the commissioning pushbutton and associate LED
functionalities.
Commissioning pushbutton
The commissioning pushbutton definitions provide a variety of simple functions to help with
deploying devices in a network. Enable the commissioning button functionality on pin 20 by setting
the D0 command to 1 (enabled by default).
