6.3 ACK description

The ACK pin is used to indicate the status of the last user’s data transmission. Before transmitting, the pin is pulled
low. After the transmission is successful, the pin is pulled high. The user can use this pin state to judge if the data
has arrived successfully. This pin function cannot indicate the coordinator to send broadcast message.

Note: In 802.15.4 protocol, the device will use the CSMA/MA technology to access the channel before sending data.
When the receiving device receives the data, the returned ACK does not have this mechanism. This means that even
if the receiving device can receive data in extreme conditions, sending device ACK pin indicates that the last data
transmission failed.

7.Operating mode

7.1.Coordinator mode

If the user configures the operating mode 4,

M0=0,M1=0

or the user configures the operating mode as 0, the module

works in the coordinator mode. In the coordinator mode, the coordinator can set up the network, coordinator is the central
node of the network, there must be a coordinator in the network.

The coordinator configurable data input mode is:

Broadcast transmission. When configured to broadcast, all non-dormant devices on the entire network will receive data.
The ACK pin indicates transmission successfully all the time.

Short address transmission, when configured to short address transmission, the user must specify the short address before
sending data.
Long address transmission. When configured to long address transmission, the user must specify the long address before
sending data.
