TO (Transmit Options)

This command applies to the XBee 3 DigiMesh RF Module.

A bitfield that configures the advanced options used for outgoing data transmissions from a device operating in Transparent mode (AP = 0).

When operating in API mode, if the Transmit Options field in the API frame is 0, the TO parameter value will be used instead.

Sending a unicast message with MAC ACKs disabled is not intended to be a reliable form of communication, as no ACKs are produced by recipients.

Parameter range

0 - 0xFF

Bit field:

Unused bits must be set to 0. These bits may be logically OR'ed together:

Bit Meaning Description
0 Disable ACK Disable MAC acknowledgments (retries) for unicast traffic.
1 Disable RD Disable Route Discovery on all DigiMesh unicasts.
2 NACK Enable a NACK messages on all DigiMesh API packets.
3 Trace Route Enable a Trace Route on all DigiMesh API packets.
4 Secure Session Send data securely—requires secure session be established with destination. Enabling this bit will reduce maximum payload size by 4 bytes.
