Connected SUs Command
The getNumberofConnectedSUs command is used on the AP only, if issued on the
SU it will return all zeros. It returns the current number of SUs that are connected
to the RF network (5-bit number, CC0 to CC4).

RSSI Command
The getRSSIReadings command is used to determine if possible interference exists
in the RF environment. The AW2400mSPI can perform a spectrum analysis scan,
stepping through the frequency band and measuring the peak and average power
received at each frequency. Note: When two or more radios are actively linked, the
AP will tell the SUs to cease transmitting when it goes into spectrum scan mode.
However, when an SU scans, it will likely see a peak transmission from another
radio.
The host microcontroller sends the resolution settings to the XC1220, then gets
