FH (Force Wake-up Initializer) Command
<AT Command: Sleep (Low Power)> FH Command is used to force a Wake-up Initializer to be sent
on the next transmission. WR (Write) Command does not need to be issued with FH Command.
Use only with cyclic sleep modes active on remote modems.
AT Command: FH
FL (Software Flow Control) Parameter
<Non-AT Settable Parameter: Serial Interfacing>
FL Parameter is used to adjust serial flow control.
Hardware flow control is implemented with the
XCite Radio Modem as the CTS pin (which regu-
lates when serial data can be transferred to the
radio modem). FL Parameter can be used to allow
software flow control to also be enabled. The XON
character to use is 0x11 ("17" decimal). The XOFF
character to use is 0x13 ("19" decimal).
HP (Channel) Command
<AT Command: Networking> HP Command is
used to set the radio modem channel number. A
channel is one of three layers of addressing avail-
able to the XCite Radio Modem. In order for radio
modems to communicate with each other, the
modems must have the same channel number
since each channel uses a different hopping
sequence or single frequency. Different channels
can be used to prevent modems in one network
from listening to transmissions of another.
The XCite Radio Modem can operate both in Hop-
ping and Single Frequency Channel Modes.
Switching between Single Channel and Hopping
Modes can only be done only using the "Function
Set" dropdown list on the "Modem Configuration"
tab of the X-CTU Software
A "Hopping Channel" is a channel comprised of a
group of frequencies. When in Hopping Channel
Mode, the radio modem hops between the fre-
quencies them when transmitting data. This
option utilizes FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread
Spectrum) technology. This option helps bolster
security in wireless data communications and also
makes the system less prone to interference.
The 25 center frequencies available in Single Fre-
quency Channel Mode are spaced 300 KHz apart.
Since each channel occupies a 500 KHz band-
width, adjacent channels therefore overlap. If
modems are used in the same vicinity but on dif-
ferent channels, the channels used should occupy
every other channel at a minimum separation. If
channels used on different radio modems can be
separated more they should be. This will provide
for more isolation and less interference.
