Changing from Mesh to Point-to-Multipoint Mode Using XCTU
By default, your modules come configured to operate in mesh mode. If you need to work a point-
to-multipoint topology, changing your settings is simple.
1. Click the
Transmit Options (TO)
command in the Networking folder in your network
parameters.
2. Change the setting from C0 to 40. TO is a bitmask that controls several options including
acknowledgements and network topology. The top two bits of the TO parameter control how
your network transmits data. Mesh mode with ACKS is C0 and point-to-multipoint mode is 40.
For more information, see the AT command section in the product manual
