DB (Last Packet RSSI)

This command applies to the XTC RF Module.

This command reports the received signal strength of the last received RF data packet or APS acknowledgment. The DB command only indicates the signal strength of the last hop. It does not provide an accurate quality measurement for a multihop link.

The DB command value is measured in -dBm. For example, if DB returns 0x50, then the RSSI of the last packet received was -80 dBm. Set DB to 0 to clear the current value, and it will be updated with the next valid packet received.
