900HP S3B, DIO1-UART Data Indicator[6], How does it work?

XBee & XBee Gateway XBee - Point-to-Point/Multi-Point
#1

I can not find any information about how the I/O setting for DIO1 - UART DATA Indicator works. I connected an LED to the pin (TH - 19) and it seems not to be obvious as to how this pin works in this mode. I am using the 900HP S3B as an Indirect Message Poller[4], with Assync. Cyclic Sleep Pin Wake[5]. I would like to use the UART Data present indicator to indicate (interrupt) the host that there is data present rather than have to wake and wait a period every poll to see if data is presented to the Serial buffer. Any insight would be appreciated, is there a document?

Thanks.

Have you configured parameter “D1” to value 0x6 and write it on to module’s memory?

Yes, D1 (DIO1) is configured for UART Data Indicator[6] via XCTU. The xbee is configured as for asynchronous sleep with pin wake and indirect message poller.

I am trying to work out how this pin should be handled by the host controller.

Thank you for your input and any further information you might be able to provide.
