TABLE 5-4: MiWi™ PROTOCOL NWK/MAC CONFIGURATION SELECTION

Configuration Option Description

Transmit Buffer Size

(bytes)

Enter the number of bytes for the largest transmitted message. The largest possible

message is 127 bytes.

Receive Buffer Size

(bytes)

Enter the number of bytes for the largest received message. The largest possible

message is 127 bytes.

Indirect Buffer

Management

This option is only available for FFDs defined in the P2P Device tab. If indirect messages

are supported, the Buffered Indirect Messages and Indirect Buffer Timeout need to be

defined.

PAN Identifier Personal Area Network identifier used in the MiWi™ P2P Stack.

Connections Table Size Defines the maximum number of P2P connections that the device can maintain.

Additional Connection

Payload (bytes)

This is the additional information to be transferred during connection establishment to

identify the device. This setting is purely application-specific and MiWi P2P Stack will not

use the additional connection payload.

Support Active Scan Checking this box will enable the MiWi P2P Stack to perform an active scan to acquire all

MiWi P2P PANs in the neighborhood.

Smallest Program Size Checking this box will enable the MiWi P2P Stack to shrink to the smallest size possible.

Certain features in this mode will be disabled, such as inter PAN communication and

packet freshness checking in Security mode.

Support Energy Scan This box will only be enabled if the device is an FFD as defined in the P2P Device tab.

Checking this box will enable the MiWi P2P Stack to perform an energy detection scan to

survey noise levels in different frequencies. This function helps determine the optimal

channel to use.

Support Frequency Agility Checking this box will enable the device to hop channels during operation to adapt to the

changing noise levels in the environment. If the device is an FFD, as defined in P2P

Device tab, and the Support Energy Scan option is enabled, the Frequency Agility Initia-

tor option can be checked to allow the frequency agility operation.
