ET (End Device Timeout)

This command applies to the XBee 3 Zigbee RF Module.

Sets the child table parent timeout. This command is set conditionally on an XBee3 parent or sleepy end devices as follows:

  1. On an all XBee3 network, set ET command only on the sleepy end device. The sleepy end device sends the timeout to the parent when joining the network.

  2. On a mixed network where the parent is an XBee3 and the sleepy end device is S2B/S2C, set the ET command only on the parent module, which will be used for the child table timeout.
