When I power up an xbee it broadcasts this message to my network which I can see received in XCTU by another module:

7E 00 14 90 00 13 A2 00 40 E2 DB 23 FF FE C2 7E 00 04 08 01 41 50 65 5A

I understand everything except the received data part of the message:

7E 00 04 08 01 41 50 65

I assume its just letting the other modules know that it has joined the network but I cant seem to find what these bytes specifically mean anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

In your transmit request frame, you are issuing a Local AT command API frame to set or Query the AP command. If you want to issue a remote AT command, try using the 0x17 frame ID instead of the 0x00 frame ID.
