Data bytes that need to be escaped:
•0x7E – Frame Delimiter
•0x7D – Escape
•0x11 – XON
•0x13 – XOFF
Example - Raw UART Data Frame (before escaping interfering bytes):
0x7E 0x00 0x02 0x23 0x11 0xCB
0x11 needs to be escaped which results in the following frame:
0x7E 0x00 0x02 0x23 0x7D 0x31 0xCB
Note: In the above example, the length of the raw data (excluding the checksum) is 0x0002 and the
checksum of the non-escaped data (excluding frame delimiter and length) is calculated as:
0xFF - (0x23 + 0x11) = (0xFF - 0x34) = 0xCB.
Length
The length field has a two-byte value that specifies the number of bytes that will be contained in the frame
data field. It does not include the checksum field.
Frame Data
Frame data of the UART data frame forms an API-specific structure as follows:
UARTDataFrame&API‐specificStructure:
The cmdID frame (API-identifier) indicates which API messages will be contained in the cmdData frame
(Identifier-specific data). Note that multi-byte values are sent big endian.The XBee modules support the
following API frames:
