The OEM Host issues this command to discover the 64-bit IEEE address of a remote radio.

Note: This command is valid only for Coordinators and/or Router devices. This command will not issue a response if the requested address is unable to be located in the network. A timeout of several seconds should be assumed when using this command.

Command: <0xCC> <0x8E> <0x00> <NWK Hi> <NWK Lo>

Number of Bytes Returned: 9

Response: <0xCC> <IEEE [7-0]>

Parameter Range:

<NWK Hi>

= MSB of remote radio’s NWK address

<NWK Lo>

=

LSB of remote radio’s NWK address

<IEEE>

=

64-bit IEEE Address of remote radio

 

 

 

Discover IEEE Address & Children of Remote Radio

The OEM Host issues this command to discover the 64-bit IEEE address of a remote radio as well as report a list of that device’s Children.

Note: This command is valid only for Coordinators and/or Router devices. This command will not issue a response if the requested address is unable to be located in the network. A timeout of several seconds should be assumed when using this command.
