XStream-PKG-R™ RS-232/485 RF Modem – Product Manual v5.x00
5. RF Communication Modes
Network configurations covered in this chapter are described in terms of the following:
• Network Topology (Point-to-Point, Point-to-Multipoint or Peer-to-Peer)
• RF Communication Type (Basic or Acknowledged)
• RF Mode (Streaming, Repeater, Acknowledged or Multi-Streaming)
The following table provides a summary of the network configurations supported.
Table 5.1. Summary of network configurations supported by the XStream RF Modem
An RF data link between two modems.
Sample Network Profile *
(Broadcast Communications)
Use default values for all modems.
Sample Network Profile *
(Acknowledged Communications)
All Modems: ATAM (auto-set MY (Source Address) parameter) **
ATDT FFFF (set Destination Address to 0xFFFF)
Basic Communication RF Modes
Streaming Mode (p42), Repeater Mode (p43)
Acknowledged Communication RF Mode
RF data links between one base and multiple remotes.

Basic Communication RF Modes
Streaming Mode (p42), Repeater Mode (p43)
Acknowledged Communication RF Modes
Acknowledged Mode (p46), Multi-Streaming Mode (p48)
Definition
Modems remain synchronized without use of a master/server. Each
modem shares the roles of master and slave. Digi’s peer-to-peer
architecture features fast synch times (35ms to synchronize
modems) and fast cold start times (50ms before transmission).
Sample Network Profile *
(Basic Communications)
Use default values for all modems.
Sample Network Profile *
(Acknowledged Communications)
All Modems: ATAM (auto-set MY (Source Address) parameter) **
ATDT FFFF (set Destination Address to 0xFFFF)
ATRR 3 (set number of Retries to 3)
Basic Communication RF Mode
Acknowledged Communication RF Mode
* Assume default values for parameters not listed. Profiles do not reflect addressing implementations.
** AM (Auto-set MY) Command must be issued through a terminal program such as the one incorporated in
the XCTU “Terminal” tab.
