XTend™ RF Module ‐ Product Manual v2.x6x
Basic Communications
Streaming Mode (Default)
Connection Sequence
Basic Communications are accomplished through two sub-types:
When using Basic Communications, any functions such as acknowledgements are handled at the
application layer by the integrator. The Broadcast Modes provide transparent communications,
meaning that the RF link simply replaces a wired link.
Characteristics:Highest data throughput
Required Parameter Values (TX module): RR (Retries) = 0
Related Commands: Networking (DT, MK, MY), Serial Interfacing (PK, RB, RO, TT)
Recommended Use: Mode is most appropriate for data systems more sensitive to latency and/or
jitter than to occasional packet loss. For example: streaming audio or video.

After transmission begins, the transmission event will con-
tinue uninterrupted until the DI buffer is empty or the
streaming limit (TT parameter) is reached. As with the first
packet, the payload of each subsequent packet includes up
to the maximum packet size (PK parameter).
The TT parameter (streaming limit) is specified by the TX
(transmitting) module as the maximum number of bytes the
TX module can send in one transmission event. After the TT
parameter threshold is reached, the TX module will force a
random delay of 1 to RN delay slots (exactly 1 delay slot if
RN = 0).
Subsequent packets are sent without an RF initializer since
RX (receiving) modules remain synchronized with the TX
module for the duration of the transmission (from preceding
packet information). However, due to interference, some RX
modules may lose data (and synchronization to the TX mod-
ule), particularly during long transmission events.
Once the TX module has sent all pending data or has
reached the TT limit, the transmission event ends. The TX
module will not transmit again for exactly RN delay slots if
the local (i.e. TX module's) RN parameter is set to a non-
zero value. The RX module(s) will not transmit for a random
number of delay slots between 0 and (RN-1) if the local (i.e.
receiving module's) RN parameter is set to a non-zero
value. These delays are intended to lessen congestion fol-
lowing long bursts of packets from a single TX module, dur-
ing which several RX modules may have become ready to transmit.
