Protocol Commands
HopNet Family of Products 800281Rev. B 68
Set Base Slot Size (base station only)
Sets the amount of time allocated for transmission on each hop for the base station
time slot in 69.4µs increments, corresponding to 4 bytes per unit. Maximum value is
34H
which corresponds to 208 bytes. If using a protocol mode, attempting to send a
packet with a length longer than this setting will cause the packet to be discarded.
Set ARQ Mode
Sets ARQ mode when set to 0 which is the default. In this mode the radio will
resend an unsuccessful transmission until either successful or
packet attempt limit
attempts have been made. When set to 1 selects redundant transmit mode that will
send every transmission
packet attempt limit
times regardless of success or failure of
any given attempt. When redundant transmit mode is used, receiving radios will
discard all subsequent retransmissions once the transmission has been successfully
received. Thus the receiving host will receive just one copy of the transmission.
