Hi,
I’m trying to send a Remote At Command Request with Receive Option 0x01 (Disable ACK). I’m using XBee S2 devices with 2x8C firmware.
The frame I’m sending looks like following:
7E // Delimiter
00 10 // Length
17 // Frame Type
01 // Frame ID
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 // Address64
FF FE // Address16
01 // Receive Option (Disable ACK)
44 30 // D0
00 // 0
75 // Checksum
The change should take affect after sending a AC command, but the change is applied immediately.
What’s wrong?
Can anyone confirm, that the Receive Options (in conjunction with a Remote AT Command Request) work on XBee ZB Series 2 devices?
(Sorry for the delay - I asked one of the Xbee field engineers to look at this - here is his response.)
I have looked at this and do not believe this is a bug.
The difficulty is in making sure the command actually was sent by queue and not applied directly. For example, if the OTA command is sent without the Apply Changes option bit set, and the command is then read back via an OTA request, the request will indicate that the parameter has been set, even though the command change has not yet been applied. If the remote radio is instead Read using the XCTU, the last operation of the Read function is to send the AC command.
If you send the remote AT command and then check the remote module using the API command ID 0x09, it will read correctly, meaning the command will not have yet been applied.

That’s the point! I checked the values via X-CTU, this caused the ‘error’.
Thanks lynnl.
