Broadcast Data Mode
Broadcast data mode can be used for continuous data transmission to all devices in the current network.
The destination address or group ID of the remote nodes is not necessary for broadcast data mode. The
transmit range is determined by the S-register 35.
Broadcast data mode can be entered using either ATB or AT+TRANSMITMODE=3. If ATB command is
used, the device will enter the broadcast data mode immediately until escaped using “+++” or reset by
ATZ. If the device is reset, it will not enter the broadcast data mode in this case.
On the other hand, if AT+TRANSMITMODE=3 is used to enter the broadcast data mode, the device
enters the broadcast data mode again whenever the device is reset. To disable the broadcast data mode,
escape the data mode first by using “+++” string and use AT+TRANSMITMODE=0 and reset the device to
apply the setting permanently.
AT commands used for the broadcast data mode are as below.
ATB<CR>
Set broadcast data mode.
AT+TRANSMITMODE=3<CR>
Set the transmit mode to broadcast. It should be reset to apply the mode.
ATS35=n, where n is the broadcast range.
ATS36=n, where n is the radius.
Set data transmission range. Please refer to the chapter
7 S-Registers
for more details.
