MAC Retries

0x4B

1

0x00 - 0x07

0x03

Specifies the number of retries to use at the

 

 

 

 

 

MAC level. A setting of 0x03 actually sends the

 

 

 

 

 

packet up to 4 times. MAC retries can be set to

 

 

 

 

 

0x00, but since they occur faster than the trans-

 

 

 

 

 

mit retries, the default setting is typically recom-

 

 

 

 

 

mended.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Network Retries

0x4C

1

0x01 - 0x07

0x02

Specifies the maximum number of network

 

 

 

 

 

retries. When MAC retries is not set to 0x00, the

 

 

 

 

 

actual amount of transmit attempts is equal to

 

 

 

 

 

MAC retries x Network Retries. Network Retries

 

 

 

 

 

occur at a slower rate than MAC retries. Net-

 

 

 

 

 

work retries are retries that occur between two

 

 

 

 

 

connected nodes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Broadcast Attempts

0x4D

1

0x00 - 0x05

0x04

Specified the maximum number of times to

 

 

 

 

 

broadcast a packet. Attempts occur at 500ms

 

 

 

 

 

intervals. There is a limit of 9 broadcast mes-

 

 

 

 

 

sages every 10 seconds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

End-to-End Retries

0x4E

1

0x00 - 0xFF

0x04

Specified the maximum number of times to

 

 

 

 

 

retry an end to end packet. End to End Retries

 

 

 

 

 

are only suitable for multihop packets..

 

 

 

 

 

Attempts occur at 6s intervals.
