How does affect the AT Commands use in ZigBee comunication?

Post by Carmen Garcia »

Hello everybody:

Some functionality in ZigBee nodes E-Blocks requires the use of AT Commands, which as described in help option, "halts temporarily the nodes"
How does mean this exactly??

Thanks you very much
Regards.

Hello,

The XBEE modules have two modes of operation, AT command mode and data mode.

When in AT command mode the module will take the input data and use to configure or setup an aspect of the XBEE system.

When in data mode the module will take the input data and transmit to the pre-specified nodes on the Zigbee network.

Some of the Zigbee macros will put the module into command mode to allow something to be configured to match the requirements of the macro. As soon as the command has been finished the command mode will be exited and the data mode will be resumed.
