How do I recover a deeply sleeping Xbee

XBee & XBee Gateway XBee - 802.15.4

I have a S1 XBee pro and I seem to have configured it to a sleep configuration I can’t recover from. The Associate LED blinks for a VERY short flash about every ten seconds; it is so short you can barely detect it in a dim room. I have tried all the recovery methods in the Digi answer document, but I believe the module is awake for such a short time it cannot execute anything. It is set to cyclic sleep (no pin activation).

Is there another secret method for restoring a factory configuration?

You can either issue a remote ATRE command to the module or you can follow the steps shown at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxOqQZD-oaM

Thank you for the suggestions. The youTube suggestion is almost the same as the methods in the Digi document and did not work.

I was able to get the remote to connect long enough to respond to a remoteAT command, so my problem is solved.

Thanks!
