' " ' (quote) -- results in accepting a quote delimited string, required for including blanks or punctuation

Remote API commands are constructed and sent on this page. Remote API commands work exactly like local API
commands, except that they are sent to a remote ZigBee device. These API commands are specific to XBee PRO/Ember
250. Commands sent to ZigBee devices using a stack other than Ember will require construction of raw packets on
the Raw Tx page.
The remote API frame input window above provides interpretation and translation of ASCII strings for the construction
of raw API packets for transmission. This provides a simple way to create the API version of AT commands.
The API command will be sent to the device whose address appears in the address windows. You can enter these
manually, or have them filled in automatically by clicking the API Target button on the Node List page.
Command interpretation is as follows:
'/' -- results in accepting any number of ASCII alphanumeric characters (0-9,A-Z) with ASCII codes placed in transmit
packet.
' " ' (quote) -- results in accepting a quote delimited string, required for including blanks or punctuation
NN -- literal number, always interpreted as hexadecimal, delimited by blanks, creates a single byte with this hex code.
An example command that sets the Network Interface name of a remote device would be:
/NI "Temp Sensor 1"
