Format an XBee module

You can use the format device request target name to format the XBee module's filesystem. This process removes any previous contents and resets the module to a fresh state.

For best results, you should notify others that you plan to reformat the XBee's filesystem before you initiate a format device request.

When you initiate a format device request, the following occurs:

• The format operation closes all files open by other users of the system, including those that may be in use by a MicroPython application.

• The contents of the filesystem are reset to their initial default state. 

Example:

<sci_request version="1.0">
   <data_service>
      <targets>
         <device id="Your Device ID here" />
      </targets>
    <requests>
      <device_request target_name="format"/>
    </requests>
   </data_service>
</sci_request>
