API operation Sending ZigBee Device Objects (ZDO) commands with the API

D = 0xEEFF
The data collector will send the above API frame out its UART.
Many-to-One Route Request Indicator
Frame type: 0xA3
The many-to-one route request indicator frame is sent out the UART whenever a many-to-one route request is
received
Example: suppose a device with a 64-bit address of 0x0013A200 40401122 and 16-bit address of 0x0000 sends a
many-to-one route request. All remote routers with API firmware that receive the many-to-one broadcast would
send the above example API frame out their UART.
Sending ZigBee Device Objects (ZDO) commands with the API
ZigBee Device Objects (ZDOs) are defined in the ZigBee Specification as part of the ZigBee Device Profile. These
objects provide functionality to manage and map out the ZigBee network and to discover services on ZigBee
devices. ZDOs are typically required when developing a ZigBee product that will interoperate in a public profile
such as home automation or smart energy, or when communicating with ZigBee devices from other vendors. The
ZDO can also be used to perform several management functions such as frequency agility (energy detect and
channel changes - Mgmt Network Update Request), discovering routes (Mgmt Routing Request) and neighbors
(Mgmt LQI Request), and managing device connectivity (Mgmt Leave and Permit Join Request).
The following table shows some of the more prominent ZDOs with their respective cluster identifier. Each ZDO
command has a defined payload. See the “ZigBee Device Profile” section of the ZigBee Specification for details.
