Cyclic sleep
Cyclic sleep allows the module to sleep for a specified time and wake for a short time to poll its parent for any
buffered data messages before returning to sleep again. Cyclic sleep mode is enabled by setting the SM
command to 4 or 5. SM5 is a slight variation of SM4 that allows the module to be woken prematurely by asserting
the Sleep_RQ pin (pin 9). In SM5, the XBee can wake after the sleep period expires, or if a high-to-low transition
occurs on the Sleep_RQ pin. Setting SM to 4 disables the pin wake option.
In cyclic sleep, the module sleeps for a specified time, and then wakes and sends a poll request to its parent to
discover if the parent has any pending data for the end device. If the parent has buffered data for the end device,
or if serial data is received, the XBee will remain awake for a time. Otherwise, it will enter sleep mode
immediately.
The On/Sleep line is asserted (high) when the module wakes, and is de-asserted (low) when the module sleeps. If
hardware flow control is enabled (D7 command), the CTS pin will assert (low) when the module wakes and can
receive serial data, and de-assert (high) when the module sleeps.
