A P P E N D I X I I I - A P I
The remote response is dependent on the OEM’s specific needs and equipment. In many cases, remote radios are
connected to dumb devices without the intelligence to filter out or append specific portions of a packet that is
transmitted or received. Since the 7 bytes of overhead in the Transmit API command are not sent over the RF, the
remotes will receive only the payload data, “STATUS”. If auto destination is enabled on the remote radio, the
transceiver will automatically change its destination address to that of the radio it last received a packet from. When
the remote device sends its response, it will therefore automatically be routed back to the SAP.
Depending on the API configuration of the SAP, the packet will be received in one of two formats:
R e c e i v e A P I
When Receive API is enabled, the transceiver will receive the reply data + the MAC address of the source radio and
two RSSI values; RSSI is how strong the remote transceiver heard the local transceiver and RSSI* is how strong the
local heard the remote transceiver.
It may be useful to the OEM Host to determine which radio each packet originated from. When Receive API is
enabled, every packet received by the transceiver will be received in the above format.
