 Bit 1 - AACK_PROM_MODE
The register bit AACK_PROM_MODE enables the promiscuous mode, within the
RX_AACK mode.
Table 7-23. AACK_PROM_MODE.
Register Bits
AACK_PROM_MODE
Refer to IEEE 802.15.4-2006, Section 7.5.6.5.
If this register bit is set, every incoming frame with a valid PHR finishes with
IRQ_3 (TRX_END) interrupt even if the third level filter rules do not match or the FCS is
not valid. Register bit RX_CRC_VALID (register 0x06, PHY_RSSI) is set accordingly.
In contrast to IEEE 802.15.4-2006, if a frame passes the third level filter rules, an
acknowledgement frame is generated and transmitted unless disabled by register bit
AACK_DIS_ACK (register 0x2E, CSMA_SEED_1), or use Basic Operating Mode
instead.
Register 0x19 (XAH_CTRL_2):
The read-only register XAH_CTRL_2 retrieves the current counter values for Extended
Operating Mode.
Figure 7-20. Register XAH_CTRL_2.
 Bit 7:4 - ARET_FRAME_RETRIES
Retrieves current frame retry counter value.
