TX (Transmit) Request: 16-bit address
API Identifier Value: 0x01
A TX Request message will cause the module to send RF Data as an RF Packet.

TX (Transmit) Status
API Identifier Value: 0x89
When a TX Request is completed, the module sends a TX Status message. This message will
indicate if the packet was transmitted successfully or if there was a failure.
Figure3‐7. TXStatusFrames
NOTE: “STATUS = 1” occurs when all retries are expired and no ACK is received.
“STATUS = 3” occurs when a packet is purged due to a ‘Polled Remote’ not receiving a poll.
RX (Receive) Packet: 16-bit address
API Identifier Value: 0x81
When the module receives an RF packet, it is sent out the UART using this message type.

Frame ID (Byte 5)
Identifies the UART data frame for the host to
correlate with a subsequent ACK (acknowledgement).
Setting Frame ID to ‘0' will disable response frame.
