rx
Receive mode for test packets (per
command)
Syntax
Rx
Example 1
Rx
Waiting for packets from peer running 'PER 23' command
....*........
The
per
and
rx
console commands are intended to be used together to
test the performance of the link. The node that runs the
rx
command (the
receiver) places the radio in receive mode and waits for the node running
the
per
command to send a burst of packets and then query the receiver.
The receiver expects to receive a burst of 100 packets, followed by a poll
request.
As the receiver receives test packets from the transmitter, it increments a
packet counter. When a poll packet is received, the receiver sends a
response packet to the transmitter to indicate the number of packets that
have been received since the last time it was polled. If the packet count in
the response is 100, the receiver displays a period (.) on the console. If
fewer than 100 packet were received, an asterisk (*) is displayed. After
the receiver sends the poll response packet, it resets the packet counter to
0 and waits for the next block of 100 packets from the transmitter.
The
rx
test terminates after a key is pressed on the console terminal pro-
gram.
