Command descriptions for the XBee/XBee-PRO RF Module
XBee / XBee-PRO RF Modules 802.15.4 Product Manual 69
To transmit using a 16-bit address, set the DH parameter to zero and the DL parameter less than
0xFFFF. 0x000000000000FFFF (DL concatenated to DH) is the broadcast address for the PAN.
Refer to the XBee/XBee-PRO Addressing section for more information.
DL (Destination Address Low) command
<Networking {Addressing}> The DL command is used to set and read the lower 32 bits of the RF
module's 64-bit destination address. When combined with the DH (Destination Address High)
parameter, it defines the destination address used for transmission.
A module will only communicate with other modules having the same channel (CH parameter), PAN
ID (ID parameter) and destination address (DH + DL parameters).
To transmit using a 16-bit address, set the DH parameter to zero and the DL parameter less than
0xFFFF. 0x000000000000FFFF (DL concatenated to DH) is the broadcast address for the PAN.
Refer to the XBee/XBee-PRO Addressing section for more information.
DN (Destination Node) command
<Networking {Identification}> The DN command is used to resolve a NI (Node Identifier) string to a
physical address. The following events occur upon successful command execution:
1. DL and DH are set to the address of the module with the matching NI (Node Identifier).
2. ‘OK’ is returned.
3. RF module automatically exits AT Command Mode.
If there is no response from a modem within 200 msec or a parameter is not specified (left blank), the
command is terminated and an ‘ERROR’ message is returned.
