Extended Timeout
Transmission Examples
3 * (1600), or
4800 ms, or
4.8 seconds.
The worst-case transmission timeout when sending data to an end device is somewhat larger than when
transmitting to a router or coordinator. As described later in chapter 6, RF data packets are actually sent to the
parent of the end device, who buffers the packet until the end device wakes to receive it. The parent will buffer
an RF data packet for up to (1.2 * SP) time.
To ensure the end device has adequate time to wake and receive the data, the extended transmission timeout
to an end device is:
(50 * NH) + (1.2 * SP)
This timeout includes the packet buffering timeout (1.2 * SP) and time to account for routing through the mesh
network (50 * NH).
If an acknowledgment is not received within this time, the sender will resend the transmission up to two more
times. With retries included, the longest transmission timeout when sending data to an end device is:
3 * ((50 * NH) + (1.2 * SP))
The SP value in both equations must be entered in millisecond units. (The SP command setting uses 10ms units
and must be converted to milliseconds to be used in this equation.)
For example, suppose a router is configured with NH=30 (0x1E) and SP=0x3E8 (10,000 ms), and that it is
either trying to send data to one of its end device children, or to a remote end device. The total extended
timeout to the end device is about:
3 * ((50 * NH) + (1.2 * SP)), or
3 * (1500 + 12000), or
3 * (13500), or
40500 ms, or
40.5 seconds.
Example 1: Send a unicast API data transmission to the coordinator using 64-bit address 0, with
payload "TxData".
API Frame:
7E 0014 10 01 00000000 00000000 FFFE 00 00 54 78 44 61 74 61
Field Composition:
0x0014 - length
0x10 - API ID (tx data)
0x01 - frame ID (set greater than 0 to enable the tx-status response)
0x00000000 00000000 - 64-bit address of coordinator (ZB definition)
0xFFFE - Required 16-bit address if sending data to 64-bit address of 0.
0x00 - Broadcast radius (0 = max hops)
0x00 - Tx options
0x54 78 44 61 74 61 - ASCII representation of "TxData" string
0xAB - Checksum (0xFF - SUM (all bytes after length))
Description:
This transmission sends the string "TxData" to the coordinator, without knowing the coordinator device's 64-bit
address. A 64-bit address of 0 is defined as the coordinator in ZB firmware. If the coordinator's 64-bit address
was known, the 64-bit address of 0 could be replaced with the coordinator's 64-bit address, and the 16-bit
address could be set to 0.
