Electrical Characteristic

The data flow sequence is initiated when the first byte of data is received in the DI Buffer of the
transmitting module (XTend RF Module A). As long as XTend RF Module A is not already receiving
RF data, data in the DI Buffer is packetized then transmitted over-the-air to XTend RF Module B.

I* no -
Configuration: Pin can be used as a backup method for entering Command
Mode during power-up. Refer to the Command Mode [p17] section for more
information.
O* no -
Receive Signal Strength Indicator: By default, pin is used as an RSSI PWM
output after at the conclusion of the power-up sequence. Refer to the RP
Command [p35] for more information. The PWM output is 2.8V-level.
