Sending Packets (long address mode)
The simplest way to send data, provided everybody knows each others’ MAC addresses and all devices
are operating on the same frequency, is to address each other using the MAC address. Packets of data
sent using the MDAR request:
Transmission is acknowledged. If no reply is received, the confirmation will report failure.
Note that the PAN ID is set to FFFF, indicating no particular PAN. During initialization, ensure all
devices select the same frequency channel. The data handle in +MDAR is ignored; the current macDSN
value is used and then incremented.
Receiving Packets (long address mode)
Received packets are normally processed by the MAC layer and generate a MAC-level indication
message, e.g.:
Note that a sleepy end device would have to poll for messages; refer to the Receiving Packets In A
Network section for more details; the poll would have to specify the coordinator long address in such a
case.
Scanning
An active scan for devices on different channels can be used to determine which networks are operating
on which frequencies. Example:
